OK, dumb question - I just tried this and I get a creation date of Mar
11 2007 for foo.testfile.  Apparently since the time is a future time,
it is showing the year instead of the time.  How do I get it to display
the time instead of the year?

I like it. I was going to suggest writing an LE program that converts
dates from GMT to local and just pick periods for all the edge
