I'll have to try to find that article. I was a bit surprised that I, with my whopping Overland Candy collection of ONE, would be the first to notice the date inconsistency! Glad to know some real research has already taken place on the matter.

I'm surprised though that none of the guides or key card collecting websites have made the date of issue updates based on Mr. Glasser's work.
