Hi Hartmut,

My apologies to you -- and Liz.  No insult was intended with the 
"Aussies" comment.  And I guess I don't get out of the U.S. enough to 
realize that we're the oddballs here with our "checks".  And BTW, to all 
who took time to comment on this topic, it was really interesting to 
hear all your perspectives on how different folks deal with the date 
discrepancies.  Thanks to all who chimed in.

And again, my apologies if that comment was inappropriate.
Tom
