The issue arose because apparently the person who posted a set of release dates comitted the same mistake as the person who innocently used the term "domestic". I see no one quick to put him on the firing line - as well they shouldn't. It looks as though you could see what the American meant, could you not? Is it equally clear what the other person specified as to WHERE the record would be released? No. Lighten up...what's the big deal?
