Hi agn Tony,
HG> Afterwards I recalled the shorthand FM that stands for the day before
HG> mid-day and EM that stands for the afternoon but nothing for the
HG> morning or evening hours.
TL> Oh, OK. So it's not like how AM means the 12 hours before midday
TL> and PM means the 12 hours after?
No it isn't because AM (a.m. ante meridiem) is used for any time before
mid-day (12 oclock), and PM (p.m. post meridiem) for any time before
midnight.
HG> I'm beginning to get the feeling that I've lived too long ;o)
TL> Oh dear. :)
Well, as long as I'm not a burden on my children and other relatives
I'll keep going, hi.
CU AGN es GN,
Holger
