My guess, Walter was in the UK for a week, had his time set up manually, 
or something else, and then when came back, he didn't set the time 
correctly. Or his computer is set to auto-detect the time zone, and 
that's not working right at the moment.

On the plane, I set my time manually to UK time so I could see what the 
time was going to be when I arrived back home.

It would be cool if the server just re-timestamped things if they are so 
far out of date (+/- 30 minutes should be enough). I've had posts from 
the PAST show up, because my outbox for some reason got stuck, and I 
didn't notice for a few days.
