here in France current date format is Day Month Year and in US month day year it's ok isn't it.


No, no it's not bloody well o.k!!! First those cheeky darned Americans rebel and chuck tons of English tea in the harbour....then they go messing with the Queens English, Kings English (whoever was sitting on the royal potty at the time) They went and made it center when it's supposed to be centre, then they dropped the U out of honour to save on ink. Cheapskates.....

And as if that wasn't enough, then they went and changed the month and day around just to confuse the British regarding royal and governmental appointments, etc...."We told you it was 1. 5. 1826, it's not our fault if you're five months late."

Yeah, messing with an age old calendar like that. Did you know at one stage they were going to make it eight days a week to get more out of their poor over-worked and underpaid workforce? Fortunately for their captive workforce, that was only until John, George, Paul and Ringo stepped in and said: "Eight days a week is ours, use it and we'll sue!!" So now, Americans everywhere only have to work six days a week, with one day off to go to church...thanks to the Beatles.

Yeah, but what's up their sleeves next....dropping the B.C. & A.D. from our calendars so it's easier to hide no-no's in astronomical dates like 12. 05. 802, 959, 676, 843 S.T.B.B. (Since The Big Bang).

It's not common knowledge, but a former president was advised we were actually a couple of years in advance of where we're supposed to be, so decided to rewrite the calendar and take 'em off so Watergate didn't actually happen.

It's said, the prior owners of Erk's time machine went back and re-instated them before anyone noticed, apparently cos they'd otherwise have missed their Golden Wedding Anniversary.

This was fixed some time ago. Comments from the future are older and left over from before the fix was implemented. If you want them removed we can do that, but it will be as we have time and an email from your registered account is required before we can do that. We cannot restore the original post date/time as theres no way to know when it was made. Please please please please please don't speculate about why [you] *think* something is happening. It's always better to wait for an answer from the person who wrote the code

Quentin, I certainly didnt mean to come across negatively, or towards you. A lot of you guys understand some of what goes on behind the scenes, so you take a best guess at what is happening. Unfortunately that sometimes is a bit off and casts a bad shadow on the work thats being done, or lessens confidence in our excellent web developers.
