[Gambas-user] Unexecuted Orphan Code or Something?

I would like to point out, if you have not noticed, that the
RETURN string uses NOW 4 or 6 times (6 if the concatenatation is fixed proper).
Please note that NOW is a little different every one of those times.
If the code executed a fraction of a moment before to after midnight
you would see the oddest output.
It would be worse if it executed at the moment before a new month started
and even more so if it executed at the moment before a new year.
In a multitasking computer, it is possible to slice out at the worst possible time.
Time-sensitive calculations must not do this.
