Hello, Danny!

 It was 14 Jan 05 12:58, when Danny Ceppa scribbled to Michael Haritonov:

 MH>>> So, 12AM is ... ? 12 AM or 12 PM? I mean - it's a zero _before_
 MH>>> midnight or _after_ midnight?
 DC>> It is confusing, isn't it.
 MH>> Oh, really :) Just like miles and pounds :)
 DC> Miles aren't bad.

Oh, yeah, just don't forget to divide them by 1.6 :)

 DC> Neither are pounds, unless they also use ounces together.

While I'm awared about ounces I still don't remember how much they are. At
least I know that a pound is about 400 grams.

 DC>> FWIW, if I tape a program starting at midnight, I set the recorder
 DC>> start time for 11:59 PM such to be safe!  I've accidently recorded
 DC>> soap operas instead of the movie I wanted!
 MH>> LOL! My kids wouldn't forgive me! :) They often set up our VCR to
 MH>> record a later movie when they've sent to beds in 21:00. BTW, when
 MH>> American kids go to bed if it is supported strictly?
 DC> There are a lot of factors involved.  The main one is for age.  But,
 DC> it also depends on the time of year and if it is a weekend.

Hmm.. In fact, I didn't catch your point, but I understood all the words. I
just can't realize - why?

 DC> How old are your kids?

Girl is 9, boy is near 5. Boy can't record, he can play and rewind only. Girl
can set up a recording session. Right now the girl is in school, the boy is
watching "The Monsters, Inc" by Pixar on VCR :) The wonderful
animation, I like
it too! :)

        Best wishes,
                     Mix.
