   If you know anything of either Windows Scripting or JavaScript, the simplest   
   way is probably to use one of them at boot time and store the result in an   
   environment variable (the latter you should probably do anyway, daily or   
   whenever the hour changes).   
      
   To avoid dependence on display date format, call WMIC from Batch to get the   
   current full date-time and the offset from UTC.  Then select the part you want   
   and use 'set /a' to do the necessary subtractions from day, month?, year??    
   You will need to    
   determine the length of February, but only when today is March 1st.
