Oh I use it too, I just try to avoid it because I don't want to create too many dependancies to a particular DB engine, it is far too easy for me to put mysql specific syntax in there then I loose the portability that a database abstraction layer buys me. Now if I was very instinctive about

you need to convert the date string to a unix timestamp before you can use it in date() you can use the Time helper function toUnix to accomplish this or look at http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.strtotime.php for the string to time function. the unix timestamp is probably your sticker on

here is my general rule of thumb, if I do something more then twice in views, rather then do it a third time I add it to one of my common helpers, if there is something close already in an existing helper, I try to leverage that work. Every once in a while I revisit and try to refactor my helpers.
