Rob,
okay, if you need to change this date and if we have only two ways left:
file and table, I'd better suggest you to choose a table with the single
row:
1. it is easy to work with
2. it is OS independent
3. if you do think it is weird now, you'll have to do this later, cause very
possibly you'll have more such data to store
