Were you involved in this decision?  Was the comment that I referred to
earlier
in the thread about this being fixed in the May, 2015 timeframe incorrect?

Regarding setting your locale to "Germany" for 24 time?  Correct me if I am
mistaken
but that also changes currency to the Euro.  If that is the case, as a
solution it's not
"fairly clumsy" it's just ridiculous.  How anyone could consider this is

in the wrong
format.  It's just clueless.
