Eli,
Thanks again,
I certainly don't seem to be able to get the setq option to work, but as I
said elsewhere this has become more of a distraction than it should have.
I am just going to live with it for now and get back to leaning Emacs.

The latter one is not supposed to work, as Emacs on Windows doesn't
use `ls' the external program, but rather uses the emulation in
ls-lisp.el. Modifying ls-lisp-format-time-list should work, unless
there's a bug.
