Not actually. The value DEFAULTS to now(), but anything can be entered 
and it still ends on storing as 1 day earlier even when a different date 
is entered.

What I *haven't* tested yet is to see if there's a particular hour that 
this happens, but I'm playing with it now - doing a submission every 
hour and seeing what I get back. If it's something other than midnight 
and it's correct for a few hours, that'll give me a clue.
