It will be very easy if your records have timestamps (automatically set to
the time when the row was created).
Then you could just write something like this:
SELECT * from yadda where yadda_timestamp < NOW();
Or, if resolution by date is enough (timestamp has YYYYMMDDHHMMSS), you
could try:
SELECT * from yadda where TO_DAYS(yadda_timestamp) < TO_DAYS(NOW());
Good luck,
