hmmmmmmmmm

I thought you meant a computer cookie.

I know, you probably want to infest our computer with one of those biz viruses that prompts it to play God Save the Queen at the strike of 12 each day.

No thanks.

There's not really a 12am unfortunately.

There's not a 12pm either as it happens.

There's 00.00 and 12.00 (or 12 noon).

[kallieb]

Tell that to my computer. Twice a day it flashes 12:00 am or 12:00 pm to me.

So, does this mean that time-sensitive viruses have to be triggered using a different code? This is all very interesting.

[Sextent]

How can 12 noon be pm.

[kallieb]

That's not what I say, it's what the computer displays. Go figure.

I think a memo to Bill Gates is in order.

No need to figure old bean. It was programmed incorrectly.

[kallieb]

I'm surrounded by incompetents. What is the world coming to.

About 4pm
