You may not be as bad off as you think you are. One of the ways to write
datetime information in MySQL is yyyymmddhhMMss so if you left-padded with
zeroes each of your numbers to 14 total places, then inserted it into a
datetime field (or fed it to a function that took datetime information
like DATE_FORMAT()) it should be re-rendered into all of it's original
datetime componenents.
