Edward,

  I took your message as partly humorous :) and perhaps my one reply :)
lacked in the needed quantity of smiley's :) :) to convey my one stance
on the date issue. Personaly if I were you I would wait to cancel your
message at least until Ron comes online tommorrow morning and let's you
know what the povray source code dating convention is :)

You must also remember :) that Americans such as myself :) are arrogant
and head strong :) and we staunchly defend our position on such things :)
right or wrong :) Don't take it personaly :)
