Your comments are 'noited'.

I, personally, will have to think about it.

That'll just tick off the folks who do the date differently, such as 07/12/2004.

Then we'll get someone whining about that. And then there will be someone asking
where in the world is 'GA', and we'll have to make sure the country goes in the
subject line as well.

On, and on it goes.

....UTC is given _allways_ on shortwave. Otherwise you may give the
timezone or just "kitchen time" :-)

"Kitchen Time" ? I've never heard that one...

The clock in a modern house is/was sometimes found on the kitchen
wall. We used to connect a special outlet for it right above or near
the fridge. It was a recessed outlet, so the cord on the clock could
be tucked up behind it.

The electrical code even said that ONLY a clock outlet could be wired
in with the fridge circuit. It made sense, as the clock uses very
little power AND it gave a visual indication of power to the fridge.

Kitchen clocks with cords seem to be a rare commodity now, the
batteries having taken over along with the 'pulsed' things driving the
clockworks instead of real motors.

Must be a regional thing. Although I've yet to see a kitchen
without *some* kind of clock, it seems like our "main" clock was
always the one on the mantle, or the grandfather clock (pardon
the digression)...

Of course. But when 'Life Lite'© replaced gracious living, the mantle
as part of daily family life was forgotten. I still remember my dad
winding the thing on Sunday nights. It was a seven day clock with very
nice chimes and a beautiful brass clockwork.

The key was kept away from us urchins, because he KNEW the temptation
to over wind it would be too great. I think I overcame my frustration
by dismantling the lawnmower engine instead.
