Fix the year and add a schedule to run the tests on Jan 2nd each year. (#597)

Regression tests are dumb. And years change.

I'd love it if we could find a way not to have the full-output
regression test.

Failing that, I'm proposing a `cron` so that we at least get an email on
the 2nd January, which reminds us to fix the year. I acknowledge that
it's a dumb solution, but it's a dumb problem: so fairs fair.
