serial number? Don't we mean serial date?

[Patrick Durusau <patrick@durusau.net>]

Greetings!

I am doing triage on the data types and keep running into date being 
referred to as a serial number?

Surely we mean serial date?

But it happens so often that I wanted to ask before changing it.

Hope everyone is having a great day!

Patrick
