Well I'm trying to store the join date of my users. Unfortunately, I can't
seem to be able to figure out how to get the current date and store it
well. I figured storing the result of time() would work, but it's not going
as well as planned. I can't seem to convert that value into a user-readable
date. I thought it was as simple as dividing (and it was, I think, until it
got down to the years, which returned something in the 300s.) I thought
time was supposed to return seconds since Jan 1, 1970? Wow I got confused.
Is there an easier function to use or does someone have a snippet of code I
can use?

Thanks for any help
