I mean no offense, but I just have to ask.... What possible difference does it make? I mean, I frankly see no need even for knowing the current Norrathian day and date, though I did finally add that info to my clock mod just for the hell of it. But the Norrathian day/date on which past events occurred? Who cares? It could certainly be handy to know, for example, that your guild was founded on December 25 of 2004, or that Satanclause joined on January 4 of 2005, but knowing that something happened on, say, Leafday, the 7th of Trollmonth, in the year 3,965, seems completely and utterly useless, at least until you convert the date back to a real date, anyway.

*Shrug*

Just my thoughts.
