1429928	2016-12-16 22:10:00	Should you use upper case I or lower case l to represent a 1 (one)	Driftwood (5551)
1429929	2016-12-16 22:53:00	I would say either, both are commonly used, though I is seen on actual Roman inscriptions.	Terry Porritt (14)
1429930	2016-12-16 23:05:00	What's wrong with using the "!" key 1 ??	Zippity (58)
1429931	2016-12-16 23:46:00	What's wrong with using the "!" key 1 ?? Because 11 = eleven, whereas II = two !	Terry Porritt (14)
1429932	2016-12-16 23:58:00	But if you bin it, 11 = II = 3 surely? Isn't there a rule these days that there has to be an H in there somewhere? (Possibly to indicate the Koha demand that is inevitable.)	R2x1 (4628)
1429933	2016-12-16 23:58:00	Because 11 = eleven, whereas II = two ! I thought 11 = a racehourse, or was that 22? Anyway assuming there's some reason not to simply use 1 then I is a better match than i IMHO	dugimodo (138)
1429934	2016-12-17 00:04:00	Is a "racehourse" just one (or 1, or I, or l) that is a bit slower than usual? ;)	R2x1 (4628)
1429935	2016-12-17 00:10:00	Didn't realise I'd done that :) teach me attempting even lame humour with my head the way it is (been sick all week). No I meant a regular speed "racehorse" of course, had to be because it won one race as you may know.	dugimodo (138)
1429936	2016-12-17 01:45:00	We haven't reached World War Eleven yet	Terry Porritt (14)
1429937	2016-12-17 08:48:00	Close though, (with the way America is self destructing?)	Laggard (17509)
