Marc, Perhaps you should discuss your viewpoint with some of those members of your Community College who have a wider knowledge of the world, it's history and peoples That way you may learn that month only gets to the front in places where they cannot do dates properly, according to the majority of the world e.g. in the USA
I do realise that many 'Americans' as in citizens of the United States Of america have difficulty realising that the USA is a small part of the world, but it is only a very limited , and relatively small portion of the world's population that used the weird illogical, and confusing mmddyy format for dates. So - even if the rest of the world accepts the weird format for presenting a date, discarding the millennium and century you still have to accept that there are going to be at least 10 such instances within each millennium and - if you are not going to discard them then the initial postulation is demonstrably incorrect JimB ----- Original Message ----- From: "Marc Sims" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, April 03, 2006 7:48 PM Subject: Re: Trivia for Wednesday 4/5/6 What Lou was pointing out was that the time and date pairs make a numerical sequence as in his example 01:02:03 04/05/06 make a numerical sequence. The 4th of May would make 01:02:03 05/04/06 a non-sequential series. So this won't happen again. Sorry.
