[ic] cookie expire

[Tim Mirecki]

Ok well that's the whole problem...

If I could just add a few months or a year I wouldn't have this problem, but
no one on the list seemed to know the answer, and I couldn't find anything
for the life of me on the Akopia site.

2037 is good enough.

peace

Or more likely, it exceeds the maximum UNIX date of 2037.

If you have cookies that are so important they will outlive the user,
I suggest you find another way to store the information. 8-)

Surely a year is enough for any reasonable use, presuming they are
refreshed the next time the users visit.
