1. <# 
2. .SYNOPSIS 
3.     This script creates a function to run culture sensitive operations
4.     in some other culture. 
5. .DESCRIPTION 
6.     The Using-Culture function gets the current culture, saves it, then
7.     runs the script block in the requested culture. The function then
8.     restores the culture.  The script then ends with calls to
9.     Using-Culture to demonstrate its use.
10.  
11.     The script is based on a blog note at: http://blogs.msdn.com/powershell/archive/2006/04/25/583235.aspx.
