   Hey Carol!   
      
    CS> Anyone can make a proposal.  It just doesn't get changed to a   
    CS> 'standard' unless widely in use.   
      
   It occurs to me that 'widely in use' for something that isn't a 'standard' is   
   going to be difficult to prove.  However I am formulating an evil, demented   
   plan that would scan msg's posted in FTSC_PUBLIC that contain the so-called   
   corrected DateTime stamp, known as '%F %T %z' in strftime-speak, no matter   
   where it is placed in the msg_body which includes kludges or such as in the   
   top line of this reply or even quoted.  Thus this reply if posted in   
   FTSC_PULIC would be counted as both a post and a positive hit for the   
   corrected DateTime stamp whereas the msg I am replying to would only be   
   counted as a post and not as a hit for the corrected DateTime stamp.   
      
   I haven't written the routine yet but am thinking Jan. 1, 2021 would be the   
   target date for implimentation.   
      
   And yes I do realize that I am a prolific poster in FTSC_PUBLIC which could be   
   interpretted as skewing the data but to be honest I have no issue with that.    
   How about you?   
      
   Life is good,   
   Maurice
