 A.6.5 Day of week items
 -----------------------
 
 The explicit mention of a day of the week will forward the date (only
 if necessary) to reach that day of the week in the future.
 
    Days of the week may be spelled out in full: `Sunday', `Monday',
 `Tuesday', `Wednesday', `Thursday', `Friday' or `Saturday'.  Days may
 be abbreviated to their first three letters, optionally followed by a
 period.  The special abbreviations `Tues' for `Tuesday', `Wednes' for
 `Wednesday' and `Thur' or `Thurs' for `Thursday' are also allowed.
 
    A number may precede a day of the week item to move forward
 supplementary weeks.  It is best used in expression like `third
 monday'.  In this context, `last DAY' or `next DAY' is also acceptable;
 they move one week before or after the day that DAY by itself would
 represent.
 
    A comma following a day of the week item is ignored.
