I work on different systems with basically the same Emacs config. However, on my Linux box I get time-stamps like [2014-03-10 Mon] and [2014-03-04 Tue] but on my Windows box I get [2014-03-10 Mo] and [2014-03-04 Di]. Obviously, my Windows box is having some German set-up (Di = Dienstag) I don't really need. I have no idea where Emacs is getting this information. Most probably environment settings I do not know of. Org-mode is doing fine with those German time-stamps. Unfortunately, when I use time-stamps in tables and calculate their difference (duration in days), I get #ERROR. When I manually change "Di" to "Tue", it works. 1) How am I able to change to English time-stamps on my Windows box. 2) Is this a calc-bug?
