No idea where the error came from, it just popped up in #Reader/IE. It went away pretty quickly, so it was either transient or you fixed it.

I disagree on (c) - quick straw-poll in the office here shows that "the last day of Jan + 1 month = the last day of Feb" (but with discussion and argument, which leads me to believe the tool is fundamentally ambiguous though).

On (b) of the above post, I was getting at the date-entry field, rather than the application as a whole (and I know this is pedantic for a demo). There are only two ways to define a date unambiguously, afaik. That's either 2004-08-07 or 08-JUL-2004. Anything else confuses Americans. The second is better IMO, because not everyone has come across weird ISO date formats.
