Subject: Re: even elder races get tired of waiting

Another reference to how to count days:

As if mother says that teenager is grounded until 23rd, that would
include the 23rd most probably, but mathematically not.

That is why our Emacs Lisp functions shall be clear in their
descriptions what is meant with it and maybe include wordings such as
"up to and including the 23rd" or "through the 23rd"
