Hi I was building, am building, a parser of your files. Basically had to since my time structures slightly different, and wanted accurate data, which I couldn't seem to obtain from the very early, or start up times of the stored files on my machine. There are other reasons but that is for another discussion if interested in alternate means around limitations of computer time. These dates I wish to verify, if you would please:
