Posted - 17 Feb 2004 : 09:50:51 Well, it appears as though everything is set for the next book in the Complete ... (after Complete Divine) series. For those who didn't know, there was a lot of doubt and uncertainty clouding this tome and whether or not it would actually see publication.
For those who are curious, interested sources point to this thread at WotC for confirmation. Just scroll down to mdonais's post at 17-02-04 02:44 AM.

Posted - 18 Feb 2004 : 12:41:01 I actually do as well, and as a programmer, it would make a lot of my work easier, but unfortunately, most systems require the day/month/year format at it's core...

Posted - 18 Feb 2004 : 09:33:53 Personally I prefer year/month/date. That's mostly because the things I date most often are computer files, and it's nice to have them all in order, rather than listed according to month or day. |

Posted - 18 Feb 2004 : 08:57:38 Oh...thanks for that Bookwyrm. I'd forgotten how 'backwards' Americans can be when it comes to such simple concepts as 'the date'...

Posted - 18 Feb 2004 : 06:14:13 For the dumb Americans in the audience, he means "02-17-04." As it was put in The Lost Mine, a Poirot mystery:
Captain Hastings: "How did you know he came from America?" Hercule Poirot: "Americans always put the month before the day." Hastings: "Oh, really?" Poirot: "Yes, they are a very backwards people."
Of course, that doesn't explain why there isn't a post with that time stamp on it. |
