>>I still don't see how is 02:03:13 PM more readable than 14:03:13 - both are sets of numbers, but the first one has an ambiguous piece which needs an additional qualifier to disambiguate it, and that one is detached, at the opposite end of the string. In my book, that's less readable. More traditional and habitual, yes, but I wouldn't go so far to call it more readable.

Like I said to Jay, I don't mind doing such things myself - just don't call it more readable...
