+1 It's domain specific. In a Gantt chart application, for example, "1 day ago" most certainly means "same time as now only yesterday"; but that's because Gantt charts are used to schedule human work, and human work is most often aligned to the time-in-the-day (influenced by the time zone). Whereas in an astronomical application, "1 day ago" most certainly means "24 hours ago". Bruno
