And this is certainly the vast majority. Perhaps some other annotation should be adopted. How about 12:00 o.m. (opposite meridian) for midnight and 12:00 m. (meridian) for noon. How about it, netters? Shall we establish a universal standard? Pete Criqui WECO @ BTL - Short Hills, N.J. P.S. I haven't figured out how to get my proper name and location into the article heading yet. Advice will be heeded.
