What does this/that mean?

How does earliest 3/12 latest 3/14 = 14 days?

Does the script get the *est article date from some header source that 
might be in error while getting the range/ time period from some other 
source/mechanism?

That part of the 'output' confuses me too; I barely speak bash so I
haven't tried to trace where that comes from.  If I feel so inclined
then I might learn how.

Despite glitches in the script, I'd be grateful if you kept doing the
fortnightly stats.  For me at least it helps identify which threads were
interesting and which ones weren't, which impacts what I identify for
posting here.  Did you mention a perl script which does something
similar and perhaps better?  Perhaps that's an alternative?

Fortnightly is a little inconvenient - weekly or monthly would suit me
better.  I have no objection if someone else wants to do it instead  ;))

The Perl script came from here <http://www.rosbif.org/perlscripts/> and
the output looks like this:
