Thanks Ryan.

Q1) On this, I was looking at:

http://code.google.com/p/simile-widgets/wiki/Timeline_EventSourceJSON_jsDate

I do not know JSON or Javascript, but I know Exhibit sees it as a date
because it comes back with "Wed Jan 1 00:00:00 EST 1840." I just
figured it would get sorted in my Table with all the other "1840-1-1"
type dates. But I'm thinking the Table is treating 1840-1-1 as a text
sort.

Q2) I still don't get this. Have tried the possibleOrders but they
just show up in the first level sort as options...not in the Then-By.
