Please don't cross-post.

localtime returns a nine-element list which is typically used as follows:

my ($Sec,$Min,$Hour,$Mday,$Mon,$Year,$Wday,$Yday,$Isdst) = localtime(time);

$Mon has a range 0..11, and  $Year has 1900 subtracted from it.  So to do
anything meaningful with the date parts:

$Mon++;
$Year+=1900;
