Dr Bob,

1. I would log in and get last visit August 18, 2004
2. I would change boards and last visit would change to December 31, 2004 during the same login session.
3. The current date started on September 11, 2004 when I became unblocked.
4. I couldn't see the boards dated on or after September 11, 2004 on my machines at home.
5. I tried company machines and public machines and got mixed results. Some I could see current boards and most I couldn't, whereas they all did that switch of last visit from Aug 18, 2004 to December 31, 1969.
6. As the days went on, when I would go to a new machine, the next day it would start out a day later, Aug 19, the next day Aug 20, etc. Each time, if I changed boards it would all of a sudden say last visit December 31, 1969.
7. Finally, I went to a State of California computer system Lab and got the results I reported in my last posting before this.

I couldn't map it all out before because I wasn't concentrating well enough on what I was seeing; I was distracted by personal stuff. Now I have mapped it all out for you. I hope this helps if it is a pressing problem, or at least in the future if it is then a problem. Something "goofy" is happening with your last date field handling. I couldn't have been doing it 1. because I wasn't posting on your system update date of August 18, 2004, and 2. It gave the same erroneous date handling performance on a totally naive computer system and workstation on my first log-on.

Please accept that I am sticking in there not to be a noodge, but rather that I know how maddening this stuff can be for sysops.

Hope I have helped.....

Rod
