Dag nab I was searching for this thread earlier! You have succeeded where I have failed. The forth is strong with you. :edit: - just noticed I can't spell "fourth". Maybe that explains it  _________________jonbwfc's law: "In any forum thread someone will, no matter what the subject, mention Firefly." When you're feeling too silly for x404, youRwired.net

I reckon Eggy Wan Kenobi pulled a Jedi mind trick on you. "this is not the thread you're looking for"

I am noticing this habit of dropping the word “the” when saying the date. So instead of “October the 22nd” we get “October 22nd” or “22nd October”. This is clearly an American import. So what is gratifying is that for the joke to work, you (and the Americans) HAVE to say “the”. “May fourth be with you” just does not work.

That's been annoying me for years, but unfortunately it has reared it's ugly head here. To make matters worse I am encountering " May twenty two", they've removed the ordinal indicators ffs.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.
