They're arbitrary numbers that have no value other than giving each file an=
unique name. The first thing I do when I upload files from an expedition i=
s to look at the files with Snapper (a mac utility). It shows the metadata.=
I rename all the files with a rational system incorporating date, time, lo=
cation, and contents. That way I can see a lot at a glance and if the metad=
ata gets lost, it's backed up. Like this:

I'm interested in hearing your progress with that. Audio recorders are lagg=
ing behind cameras in the metadata department.
