I may have giggled snorted bellowed with laughter when I saw this error message in my log today.

NOTE: There were 0 observations read from the data set WORK.TEST.
      WHERE 0 /* an obviously FALSE WHERE clause */ ;
NOTE: The data set WORK.TEST has 0 observations and 15 variables.
NOTE: DATA statement used (Total process time):
      real time           0.07 seconds
      cpu time            0.00 seconds
