Rick,
    This portion of the site was done by a previous employee and well you
know the expression.. "If its not broke don't fix it." Well now that I
cannot query the db by the date it is now broke and I am still figuring out
how MySQL is taking entries to the db so I figured this bit of information
would maybe sum up the problem in the date field.  I have been reading up on
the date function in the MySQL book I have but somethings it just doesn't
cover. So please excuse my being vague. Thanks,
Jason
