Larry,

I looked at this again. If I use the following script

on mouseUp
   set the twelveHourTime to true
   put fld 1 into myList
   set the itemDel to colon
   sort lines of myList descending numeric dateTime
   put myList into fld 2
end mouseUp


I get this result:

16:33
15:56
12:16
11:35
9:14
7:47
2:08
1:22
25:34
34:55

which indicates that invalid times are simply not sorted. There are only 24 hours in a day and 24 and higher are invalid numbers for hours.
