First of all I have to say that this process is much faster then i expected.

I applied my N400 late Nov 2008, and my Interview is Mid March 2009...wow.

What concerns me is that I just got the interview letter today which mentions that i should bring my greencard, passport, and proof of selective service registration.

The last part worries me because I never registered for SS, I was out of status until I was 28 I think, then it was too late to register, and before that I didn't know anything about SS. At the time of the interview I will be over 33, and I did send an explanation with my N400 stating that I did not register knowingly or intentionally.

Will this be an issue? what should I do?
 
It's just a generic template that they use for interviews. Kindly explain your situation to the IO and you should be fine.
 
I called SS as soon as I found out that I supposed to register (at age of 32-33) and explained them the reason of not registering and SS mailed me the letter which says I unintentially missed the registration.

the law says:

"If you are male, you generally need to register with the
Selective Service System before applying
for naturalization. If you are male and lived
in the United States (in any status other
than as a lawful nonimmigrant) during ages
18 through 25, you must be registered with
the Selective Service System. If you are
male and entered the United States after
you turned 26 years old, you do not have
to register with the Selective Service."

If you were in-status when you reached age 26 then you don't need to register with the selective service.
