Sounds good to me!  What's \s?

yeah, basicall, that was it - forcing it to have a valid space between the 2

I just started working with RegExp's so, I'm totally hacking this.

I've always used "\s*" the way you are using "\b". But I think you
always want one whitespace character between year and time? Is that what
the \b[ ] thing is doing? How about replacing "^\b(\d{2})\b[ ]\b" with
"^\s*(\d{2})\s+".
