Subject: Re: a command to insert today's date OR time (or both)?

A couple years ago I posted code to insert the current date and/or the
current time (and other functionality, e.g., yesterday's date,
tomorrow's date) to the emacs wiki.  Oddly, that wiki page didn't turn
up in several different searches... I found it only after browsing the
Categories.  To save you some time, it's here:
