That looks ideal for me, even with the simplifications. ++ Looking at the name I'm amazed I didn't find that myself. Steve --	[reply]

I searched for "time ago". Unfortunately, many time zones have "ago" in their name (such as "Chicago"). And it either ignored "ago" or it came up lots of irrelevant Time:: modules after those that had "time" and "ago" in their name. Update: Since I couldn't stop after the first sentence, the post lost all value. Ignore it :)	[reply]
