in thread ultimate date check regexp

It seems a little counterproductive to call Date::Calc::check_date almost 75,000 times in order to create that regular expression. Unless you're planning to process more than 75,000 records then it would be more efficient to just call Date::Calc::check_date once for each date you want to check.

    Hey, thats more a joke, but Im the only one that does it with a regexp. And I call the script only once and put the resulting regexp into the script. If I need to do it with a regexp.
