[osflash] RegExp question

Can someone tell me WHY this is not returning false?

it's supposed to catch a "yy hh:mm" string, but when I pass 4 digit year, it
still says true.  It also optionally allows for 12hr clock values  (hence
the alternation with the am/pm)

var reg:RegExp = /^\b(\d{2})\b[
]\b(?:(?:0?[1-9]|1[012])(?:[.:][0-5]\d){1,2}(?:\D?[ap][m]))|(?:[01]*\d|2[0-3])\b[.:]\b[0-5]\d\b$/i;

trace(reg.test("1969 21:00"));

any and all help mucho appreciated!
