Initial Comment:
In LPFU at 10:30 UTC shows "-8238 minutes ago, at 10:30 UTC, 
the wind was blowing at a speed of 7.7 ".... the problem is of 
course the - sign that shows (variable $minutes_old).

I agree that something should be done about negative dates -
the best thing would be, if we had a system that would
automatically use the right precission, so that a recent
report gets a string like '25 minutes ago, at XX:XX UTC' and
an older report gets '3 days ago, at XX:YY UTC on August the
3th'.

We could even make it so, that one can choose to have a
relative date (the 'x units ago') and an absolute date (the
'at XX:YY UTC on ...') or both. I think that would be rather
cool.

You could create a control then this happens like if older then 5 days 
then data to old to be used..... just a thought
