This is ridiculous. I just wasted 45 minutes of my time trying to open a single
file with semicolon-separated values in Calc only to find out that it is
impossible. Well, it is technically possible, but the data are useless. Trying
to change the cell's data format from "date" to standard numeral is hopeless
either, because the value itself is changed, not just its representation.

Here is the file, for your own amusement: http://fijam.eu.org/other/jcr_recs.txt

I can't see how this could have got past any Q&A team. I ended up writing a
python script to parse my file into something useful. Productivity, right.
