When you see a number between around 1900 and 2050, do you automatically think of years?
You see a four digit number somewhat close to our current era, without a context attached to it, like 1938 or 2012. Absent of context, does your mind automatically 'see' it as a year?

Yes, but only if it is closer to our current year than the span in the question
I handle a lot of billing/accounting issues at work... so I'm constantly looking at numbers... so I might do it occasionally.... if it's 1976 or something like that.
I hate when I give a client a total or balance that contains 666. People freak out. It's stupid.

I get that at work if the total is $6.66. I also get weird reactions from people when their total comes to $9.11.
