I am so stubborn!

1. First I substituted the "," for "/" to make it more clear, and still
worked.

2. With more tests now doing a variation on the ",1" part to be "/1" "/2"
"/3" etc. I found that this is the day part

So 1/1 is the first day of January
and 3/24 is March 24 in some kind of pseudo-numeric format (that comma and
the "36," prefix!)

1/1==>36,526
1/2==>36,527
1/3==>36,528
1/4==>36,529
1/5==>36,530

I tried adding a year element like 1/1/2000 or 1/1/00 or 2000/1/1 and
nothing happens, same numbers.

Please, somebody kill me or I'll keep doing this forever! :-)
