I have several appointment books (and lack the self-discipline to use any of them).
Ansel Adams and American Express (both desk and pocket versions) start the week with Monday. Smithsonian starts the week with Sunday. Inconsistently, my American Express and Ansel Adams wall calendars both start the week with Sunday. The difference could be that appointment books are typically used for the work week, which does start on a Monday, as opposed to the calendar week. That a calendar should show the calendar week seems quite reasonable. <g> Bill Potts, CMS Roseville, CA http://metric1.org [SI Navigator] >-----Original Message----- >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:owner-usma@;colostate.edu]On >Behalf Of Jim Elwell >Sent: Thursday, October 31, 2002 10:30 >To: U.S. Metric Association >Subject: [USMA:23026] Re: Question about date format > > >Louis JOURDAN wrote: >>I recognize this is off-topic, but who knows which countries/regions use >>Sunday as the first day of the week, and which ones use Monday ? > >In the USA we pretty much use Sunday as "day 1," and all our >calenders show >Sunday on the left and Saturday on the right. > >In those countries where Monday is "day 1," do your calendars start with >Monday on the left? > >Jim >
