 Bingo!


 {{{
 date('M d Y H:i:s', current_time('timestamp')): Apr 28 2009 12:01:51
 date('M d Y H:i:s', current_time('timestamp')): Apr 28 2009 10:04:12

 date('M d Y H:i:s', current_time('timestamp', true)): Apr 28 2009 17:01:51
 date('M d Y H:i:s', current_time('timestamp', true)): Apr 28 2009 15:04:12
 }}}
