Re^2: Getting previous dates from the current date

This should work

But it won't do all the time: you've fallen for the apparently common trap of assuming that days have 24 hours in them, then using localtime.

More generally, you've fallen for the trap of trying to write this stuff yourself rather than trusting the DateTime geniouses to have got it right for you, so that you don't need to think about such awkwardnesses.
