soo what happens with php if you do something like convert them both to 

Y-m-d H:i:s

and then subtract one from the other, i have a feeling (haven't tried) that
php will handle the rest for you...

// Is there an easy way to calculate the difference between the current
// date and a date prior to January 1, 1970 (unix epoch). Just 
// getting the
// timestamp and then subtracting the other date from it won't 
// work because
// it will be a negative number. Any insight? I think this can 
// be done very
// easily in ASP (built in function? But I don't know ASP, it's 
// just what I
// heard). Thanks for your help =)
