On Stardates

Lately, people have been asking me what the funky numbers at the top of my documents mean. Naturally, they're stardates. How else would I keep track of my revisions?!?

They're formatted like this:
(mm)(dd)(yy).(military time)
Right now, for example, it's stardate 030811.12. See? Of course. It's simple. :)

However, in my loooooong years of experience as an attorney (*coughcough*) I have found them to be especially helpful for tracking revisions, since no other format concisely contains the month, date, and hour. And it looks cool.

If you have no idea what a stardate is, watch the first 10 seconds of this video, and you'll know all about it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VibXjlF0N1c&feature=related

So that's today's update. I won't mention that tonight will be the last official meeting of my mock trial career. Cue sad symphony orchestra and weeping. IT'S THE END OF AN ERA, PEOPLE!!!!!
Oops. I think I just mentioned it. :D

See ya'll tonight!
