Yes, that is an excellent page for learning about the mess we are in. Note that it is headed "Unix time". That's why I am reluctant to follow Unix too closely. With the count of seconds changed to an integer, I don't think I have any big worries. As I said, I am not attached to the names. I'll reply to your previous message after I think for a while. -- Keith _______________________________________________ r6rs-discuss mailing list r6rs-discuss@lists.r6rs.org http://lists.r6rs.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/r6rs-discuss
