    how do i give it a date in the past?
    The POSIX doc I pointed to shows you how to do that.

      The part i am not understanding in the posix doc is the timezone -- they are always referring to something like America/Chicago, but i have +0000 and when i try to use it nothing happens -- could you please provide an example -- i have trouble understanding the documentation.

      thanks!
