I can certainly see how it doesn't make sense to have that method for that class, but I'm wondering why a Date isn't a DateTime? I suppose then we'd be removing the time element, so we'd get the same problem... but it was just striking is all. Time.now gives date and time. -------------------------------1163982915--
