Same; hence my choice of the above attribution :-) It's bad enough trying to sort out 12/03/02, 03/12/02 or 02/03/12. Trying to read 120302, 031202 or 020312 causes my mental parser to have a nervous breakdown. It's one of the few quibbles I have with Sven's configs. (which I've otherwise shamelessly co-opted, thanks Sven!) > As far as including email addresses in the attribution, not everyone wants > their address (re)posted, because of spammers. Although, if I were a spammer trolling for addresses, I'd just snarf the 'From' header.
