Hello again,
sorry for the duplicated last message - my first message had bounced,
but apparently only from the poster's address.
Ok - small addition: the dot should be added in the subsequent line as
well:

I'm now a bit worried about this paragraph in
(info "(emacs) Appointments"):
| You can write times in am/pm style (with ‘12:00am’ standing for
| midnight and ‘12:00pm’ standing for noon), or 24-hour European/military
| style. You need not be consistent; your diary file can have a mixture
| of the two styles. Times must be at the beginning of diary entries if
| they are to be recognized.
Military style is 1200 for 12:00am, right? This definitely can't be
used everywhere when using the European style because lines get
ambiguous: for digits could mean a year - or a military time in a line
not specifying a year. Should that paragraph be corrected?
Michael.
