Why not use the Debian standard??

So...
the RFC standards for internet communication is not good enough?
or the Debian Policy standard
or the standard of *this* mailing list:-
(eg. as used in
http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2011/04/msg00141.html)
And *you* can't sort the in-place standards?
Let me guess - do you also use the imperial measurement system?
Did someone mention Cultural Imperialism earlier?
;-p
I've always thought that Unix Time is *incredibly stupid* (who the heck
says "Fri Apr 1 23:27:41 CDT 2011"?) and *monumentally shortsighted*
(did nothing happen before 01-Jan-1970?).
Um, apropos of what (Unix time)??

OpenVMS does it one of the two Right Ways
There's two "right" ways?? :-)
I know you're trying to be funny, but sure: there's usually more than

of displaying time
(01-Apr-2011 23:27:41)
Which *is* RFC 2822....
and has an epoch date of 17-NOV-1858 00:00:00.00
(modified Julian date adopted by the Smithsonian Astrophysical
Observatory for satellite tracking) and keeps time in a signed 64 bit
integer using 100ns resolution).
Interesting...
Cheers
