      Danger Mouse checks his program again...
      "Don't tell me I got the Daylight Savings correction wrong..."
      After a couple of minutes he looks up again. "Nope, I got it right. For winter, of course. When it's summer (in the southern hemisphere, you nordicentric people!! :-) ) then Shonias' reckoning is correct. But since it's now winter, my calculation stands."

      I am American of Irish ancestry hence not a Semite. But unlike the racists I will not twist history to get a Nordicentric lie.

      "Holy" used sarcastically to illustrate that Orientals are unfortunately popular not only on the "White left", but also in some precincts of the "White right" as well. Conservatives certainly fit this description, but also some of the "Nordicentric" type of "racial activists" seem....enamored of Orientals as well. Regardless of these preferences, nonWhite is nonWhite...East is East and West is West and, in theory, the two should never meet.

      > So, until 2013 Mark will lead this table. Should we bestow upon him the symbolic distinction of being UCPS "Summer Champion"? :-)
      "Winter Champion" please; there's no reason to be Nordicentric here!
