 * Well, I just removed the date to temporary solve the problem..
    but all users
   where getting:
 *  TweetReport (TweetReport) says:
    December 31st, 1969 at 17:00:00

 * Hmm thx for the bugreport, I’ll look into it! (by the way, it SHOULD be setting
   the date correctly, it does so on my blog, so this doesn’t happen for everyone
   🙂 )

 * We also suffer from the date issue on beteo and Collanos blog – example: [http://blog.beteo.ch/2009/01/08/integration-von-quality-center-und-jira/#comments](http://blog.beteo.ch/2009/01/08/integration-von-quality-center-und-jira/#comments).

 * I can also confirm that many of my tweetbacks have a date of 1969-12-31 23:59:
   59.

 * Same happens for me. It also looks like it doesn’t support chars like æøå , the
   comment cuts right before those chars.

 * Fixed this with a workaround around line 350 like this:
    $blah = str_replace(“
   T”, ” “, $blah); $blah = str_replace(“Z”, “”, $blah); $commentdata[‘comment_date’]
   = gmdate(“Y-m-d H:i:s”,strtotime($blah));
 * Strange chars in the timestamp.

 * Same here – all my tweets have the 1969 datestamp!

 * Tried the fix above, clearing the database then refreshing – nope.
