 Just upgraded to wordpress 2.5.1, so not sure if this issue existed
 before.

 I created a new post yesterday (26.04), set its timestamp to today (27.04)
 it was not posted, I assumed I had to wait until today.

 Today I saw that it still wasn't posted and when I went to manage posts,
 it listed it as '''11 hours from now''', though it should have been '''11
 hours ago'''. I played around with timestamp and saw that it always adds,
 as if it is taking an absolute value instead of subtracting when timestamp
 is in the past.

 I.e. right now is 12:48. When setting timestamp to 13:15 and looking at
 manage posts list, it says '''27 minutes from now''', so correct - 27
 minutes in the future. However, when I set timestamp to 12:15 and go to
 manage posts it says '''33 minutes from now''' instead of '''33 minutes
 ago'''.
