@brianmhunt: Bit late to the thread here, but isn't the timeago date difference code already accounting for timezones? The original timestamp can be assumed to have proper timezone offset info attached (there's really not much we can do if it doesn't), and the current time (via `new Date()`) is used purely to get the number of milliseconds since the epoch (UTC) via `getTime()`. Your days_difference function seems fine too (I spent a while checking); I've taken it and applied a similar date-only patch to [my own fork of jquery-timeago](https://github.com/cameron314/jquery-timeago) -- thanks!
