Note: Base32 Dates
• In the year 2ooo, I began using a base32 numbering system for indicating dates in filenames. This allows using only 3 characters instead of 6 for specifying year, month, & day. This system uses the Hexidecimal codes for 0-15 and the letters G-Z for 16 through 31. Three-character dates are indicated by a preceding tilde ~ . Not used are the characters: I L O U. (I,L,O could be confused with 1 or 0, and the letter U might could be confused with V.)

Examples:

• fna~31a • fnm~38n • ft4c~34f • n~321 • ws~43c • r~g45

= NAMA Foray on 10jan03 = NMMS Foray on 21aug03 = 4cmc Field Trip on 15apr03 = News issue for 1feb03 = Workshop on 12mar04 = Roster for 5apr16 (meeting attendees)
