Hi Eric:

I know of some people who have read netcdf files fine,and others.  I  
am not very knowledgeable about Arc, but i know of other programs  
that have trouble with time before 1902.  Just out of curiosity, what  
happens if you create the same file with a different base time?

Just a guess - I could be way off.

-Roy
