Subj : a toast! To : Nancy Backus From : Maurice Kinal Date : Mon Nov 06 2017 16:39:35 Hey Nancy! NB> On the day of gunpowder and RoyRogers... let the gunpowder and the NB> cowboy blow away the remnants of Daylight Stealing Time... :-) Much better than my toast to you. Thank you. NB> no matter what the date-time stamp, It was indeed done right at NB> 9pm EST Looks like the BBS is using UTC since it arrived here long before 02:22:54 EST. If so it appears it got posted rougly 23 miinutes later which is good timing all things considered. I definetly have the advantage of being able to post directly to the BBS so that the msg header's datetime was 02:00:00 (UTC) and the extra special datetime stamp was -={ Sun Nov 5 21:00:00 EST 2017 }=-. I doubt I can get more accurate than that. Life is good, Maurice ....
