I rememeber seeing somewhere (maybe in a hCalendar implementation? [1]) the use of the `abbr` tag for these "clever" dates. So you'd have: <abbr title="2005-11-12">Today</abbr> 10:15
You then could use CCS to make the title attr appear in the printed version (with the `content` property [2]).
Apart from this CSS wizardry, the printing issue could be easily solved by putting today's complete date somewhere on the page. I can't think of a simplest solution :)

That's really good! Didn't think of that. Will give it a try.
