Agreed- to a point quite ok .
DO tell me or others that we have a loose thread hanging somewhere but 
let's
keep it on technical track and not let it get personal in either direction.

Which was a mistake I could have made had I continued on my first path.

And the concept of some mail  client or list archive issues being caused by
bad date/time is valid too. Were one to review this concept and cross
impacts some here invoked, perhaps posting times should not be dependent
on local clock.
To really take this as a point of constructive discourse could anyone 
here suggest
mail software that uses something other than local system time?

Keeping this on a hardware or software interest level was/is a very good 
thing
Where it veered off into personal as opposed to technical was my point 
of initial comment.
I have a hell of a sense of humor and usually jokes at my expense may 
get a laugh within reason.
What my concern was for centered on aborting a wave of straining at Gnats
while swallowing camels. Bluntly put nitpicking is often a fatal loop.
