Hi, Bat folks,

where I live) A Curtis Martin wrote the following lines regarding

I have done so, but now I get
"on Tuesday, April 03, 2001 at 18:34:57 GMT -0700 (PDT) (which was
Mon, 2 Apr 2001 03:34 where I live)"
which makes it even wronger, because it should have been April 4!
Take care,
Andreas
