I had a bit of BFOTO and tried simple inserts.
mysql create table t (f timestamp);
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql insert into t values ('2008-03-04 16:17:00');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
mysql select * from t;
+-+
| f

The column type needs to be DATETIME.
Thank you for pointing me at TIMESTAMP versus DATETIME. I'll read
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/date-and-time-types.html
thoroughly when I can.
Can you give a little more detail as to why DATETIME is necessary?

It was much too

It was much too quick a reply on my part but it is my understanding
that a TIMESTAMP field is updated according to server time and you
cannot actually insert a value. I may be wrong as I have never
tested this.
Even in pre-4.1
