No, I don't think so. I don't think anyone can truly FIND the inimitable Mr. Warren.
Obviously, Joel is the perpetrator of these time shifting phenomena, and he has sent this Post from some other time/space continuum.
(play the Twilight Zone theme right-about now)!
Perhaps he doesn't truly exist, except in our own fervid (or is that fetid?) imaginations.
Ahhh! But, then, that begs the question are any of you "real" except in MY imagination?
Perhaps in "reality", I'm in some dark, dank dungeon of the Spanish Inquisition because I confided in one Cardinal Richlieu that I had visions of "Glowing Boxes" with people inside of them, while I sit in an eerily comfortable chair pushing buttons on a small, shiny box that makes the people change and brings me many visions of great beauty & wonder!
.................Naaahh!!!!
WAIT ! ! ! Come to think of it . . . I think his name was Cardinal WARREN--------------OhMiGawd!!!! I'm in for it NOW!!!!

Hmm, found the bug... for some reason it was adding an hour to the date when someone registered. So, between 11:00PM and 12:00AM, if you registered AND posted a message, it would show up as different dates.

I remember noticing that once before, but forgot about it before I could fix it. :-)

Those midnight bugs will get you. When I worked for US Long Distance (USLD -> LCI -> now Qwest), we found a bug where if you started a call before midnight and spanned midnight, we decided not to put the call record in the billing bucket. Cool, eh? Not to mention the Daylight Saving Time bug that caused me a lot of grief. When the time rolled back from 2am to 1am, that second hour's worth of calls (from 1am to 2am) got tagged as duplicates and we didn't bill those either. Ah, the good old days of working for a telephone company....
