The timestamp data type is a special MySQL type that automatically updates
whenever you add or update a row in a table.
If you want timestamp to work when you add a row but not when you update a
row, you need to write your update statements like this:
UPDATE tbl_name SET vartochange="newvalue", t_stamp=t_stamp WHERE ...
The "t_stamp=t_stamp" will cause t_stamp to not change to now().
