Why do some articles have the phrase "parse date string" in their title? Is this some inside joke, or does some software add it? Along the same lines, lately some messages have been ending with a notation something like: "598 bytes 14 seconds". What gives? Does anyone know? stumped in netland, Ed Pawlak ihuxb!ewp
