Is it me or are the dates messed up? I don’t think it is March 10th just yet.

You know I read that thread, but thought you were bitching about a mere one hour time difference. Missed the “full 24 hour” part Poor reading comprehension today. My bad.

Hm… It’s still messed up though.

I dunno Alphagene. It looks correct, or at least within a couple minutes, to me. Could what you are lookin at be the page of topics, where the topic with most recent posts (i.e. The ones with the correct date) are shown below the topics with posts dated 3/10? I seem to remember we had this little snafu a couple months back. It is self-correcting when the actual time catches up to the dates/times in error.

If that isn’t what you are seeing, then I’m confused, but that isn’t unusual.

Maybe this is what happened to Harold Hill’s [‘missing day’](http://boards.straightdope.com/ubb/Forum7/HTML/001238.html)!
