I occasionally get this error:

So, the dates looks the same to me.  Any ideas for how to debug?

I monkeypatched DateTime (aieeeeee!) to get this effect. A custom matcher is probably a better solution. Here's the monkeypatch:

require File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/../spec_helper'

class DateTime
    def close?(other_date, difference)
(other_date.to_time.to_i - DateTime.now.to_time.to_i).abs < difference
    end
end

#Delete this context and add some real ones
context "should be able to create a project viewer" do
  fixtures :project_viewers

  specify "fixtures should load two ProjectViewers" do
pb = ProjectViewer.create(:comments => 'a comment', :last_viewed_at => DateTime.now)
    pb.last_viewed_at.should_be_close(DateTime.now, 100)
  end
end
