All: > >I believe the draft will be released in mid-August, which is informally >being referred to as July 45th for this purpose (grin) This is a fine and upstanding custom, perpetuated by the US Congress who insist that they learned it from English common law. It is called the "Legislative Day", and it works like this: If they have agreed to do something by, say, the 5th of July, and on the 5th it becomes obvious that there is NO WAY it will be finished in time, they delcare that the "Legislative Day" is the 5th of July. Thereafter, all legal records contain both the Calendar Date (say October 8th) and the Legislative Day (still the 5th of July) until they officially adjourn for the "day". Sigh. I waver between digust and envy at the ability to rearrange the world like that. --Debbie ====================================================================== Deborah A.
