Barry,

 BM> At least with Zulu time I could practice my math skills and get the
 BM> original timestamp.

  With weather data and ham radio logs, most are done in Z Time...which
never changes. But, it's the time based on the Greenwich Meridan, at 0
degrees longitude...0 degrees latitude is the equator.

 BM> Might be worthwhile to have for future reference.  Unfortunately the
 BM> hardware will fail, so you'll get to do it all over again.
 DS>   You have a way of putting things so nicely.

 BM> Thank you!  <cheesy grin><g>

  Your blushing skills need work <g,d,r>.

 BM> That is sort of the trouble: too many taking advantage of the system.
 BM> Hear 'all the time' of people living as paupers and when die leave
 BM> millions of dollars to their pet parakeet.  Then there are those barely
 BM> eeking by, don't ask for anything, yet could get out of the hole with a
 BM> tiny handout.

  There's a country-western song..."God Is Great, Beer Is Good...and
People Are Crazy". This one guy is talking to an older man in a bar
in Ohio about a myriad of topics. The old man was actually a millionaire,
and he left his fortune to the guy he talked to (made his kids mad as
you know what).

 BM> Have some more fun and try to figure out the math!  The hospital billed
 BM> some huge amount, the insurance had negotiated a lesser amount, paid
 BM> some, maybe another insurance paid a little more, leaving you to pay
 BM> the rest, but none of the numbers match up.

  That's the way it works.

 DS>   As long as it doesn't come undone.

 BM> I vote to go to the piercings shop and have them clip you back together
 BM> that way!!

  Oh, Lord, NO!! I may be crazy, but I'm not stupid.

Daryl
