Importing New Weblogs into Movable Type

If you import an entire database into a new weblog with Movable Type you may get weird:
    uninitialized value in substitution iterator at
        lib/MT/Util.pm line 146
messages (this is with Movable type 3.121). This is due to pure imports not setting the language for the date/time display. If you go to the configuration page for the weblog and set the Preferences/Language for Date Display to "English", it should fix the problem. When I imported my reading list generated by a Perl program, the date display language ended up set as "Czech". If you get similar error messages, czech and double czech that this hasn't happened to you.
