Incorrect date for source_id S20027

The source_id S20027 date has been entered or parsed incorrectly. Maybe there's an issue due to how some people use DD/MM/YY vs MM/DD/YY, but 27 is in the middle, so the full date shouldn't show the year as 2027 regardless of where it's parsed/entered from in the other fields.

Carving pumpkins in our backyard on 10/27/01, 3 freinds and I looked to the west and saw a black, tubular, boomerang-shaped object high in the sky. At first we thought it might be a string of balloons, but the the object was definitely of a set shape. It remained stationary, slowly rotating on the horizontal plane and drifting extremely slowly to the west, all the time rotating horizontally and keeping its shape. We tried to look at it through a telescopic lense on a camera, but got no better resolution than with unaided eyes. An airplane flew low beneath it and seemed not to acknowledge it. It was too high to be a kite. It was noiseless.
Shape: Chevron
Duration: 1/2 hour
Characteristics: There were aircraft in the vicinity or aircraft chasing the object","CALIFORNIA",5388881,6249777,38.75212,5205340,-121.28801,"","NUFORC","S20027","'1/2':133 '10/27/01':17 '3':18 'acknowledg':117 'aircraft':138,143 'airplan':108 'backyard':15 'balloon':49 'beneath':111 'better':101 'black':1,29 'boomerang':3,32 'boomerang-shap':2,31 'ca':10 'camera':97 'carv':11 'characterist':135 'chase':144 'chevron':131 'definit':55 'drift':70 'durat':132 'extrem':71 'eye':106 'first':40 'flew':109 'freind':19 'got':99 'high':7,35,122 'horizont':67,80 'hour':134 'keep':82 'kite':126 'lens':94 'look':22,88 'low':110 'might':44 'noiseless':129 'object':34,53,146 'plane':68 'pumpkin':12 'remain':61 'resolut':102 'rosevill':9 'rotat':6,64,79 'saw':27 'seem':114 'set':58 'shape':4,33,59,84,130 'sky':38 'slowli':63,72 'stationari':62 'string':47 'telescop':93 'thought':42 'time':78 'tri':86 'tube':5 'tubular':30 'unaid':105 'vicin':141 'west':25,75","",142,1

If the date is correct, then it's a very interesting data point, considering it's from the future.
