Hi Joe,
   I appreciate the inputs but the command unfortunately didn't change anything.

MacMini ~ # mysql -v -u mythtv -pmythtv mythconverg -e 'DELETE FROM
mythweb_sessions'
--------------
DELETE FROM mythweb_sessions
--------------

MacMini ~ #

   It's very strange. The Listings page has 3 places it sows the date:

1) Top center - it appears to give the actual system time. This is
correct on my system.

2) Upper left - shows the time we are browsing in the listings
database. When I start MythWeb this value is correct and the listings
are for 'reigh now', which is again correct.

3) Upper right - Shows the point we want to jump to. When I start
MythWeb the time portion of the date is correct, but the year portion
shows Friday Sept. 22, 2000, not Tuesday Sept. 22, 2009. So it sort of
knows the date - at least day of the month, but then it calls the
calendar lookup and gets the day wrong.

   Very strange!

Thanks,
Mark
