Ah, but if I do that, then the language of my menus and everything else
changes.  The LC_TIME variable on the other hand just fixes the dates to
display like they should, and leaves the rest of the things alone.  A
perfect solution to my date problem.  Florian's advice went straight
into my button, and now when I click on IceDove, it looks fine.  I would
imagine Ken has also implemented this, or he's still evaluating other MUAs.

As for the weather in Seattle, I can relate to that.  It rains a lot
here too.  That's good for the flowers that we export. ;)
