Genie V3.0 SP3 - culture= removed from web.config

In versions of Genie prior to V3.0 SP3, the WEB.CONFIG specified a culture="en-US".

In Genie V3.0 SP3, the culture has been removed.

On systems using a non-US version of Windows or .NET, this can cause problems. If you try to go to a Print Labels page (in the InfoCart, printing Bar Codes in Items, or printing Routing Lists in Serials), you may see the following message:

Error: unable to load record.
Input string was not in a correct format.

While you could change MyLabels.config to use centimeters, and change all the values, that would be pretty cumbersome.

It's far simpler to restore the culture="en-US".
