ericc,
Could you be more specific? I'm not sure what question you're asking.
I seem to have no particular issues following the timeline for posts in threads. All of them have a date and time of posting, or if posted within the last couple days it says something like today or yesterday at such and such a time.
I think the default settings in your preferences are set for Central Standard Time USA. You can change that + or - however many hours you are location is away from that.
Also it may help clear up some confusion if you are in "threaded mode" to go to your preferences and change that setting to "flat mode".
Whatever the case please stay in touch on this issue and we'll try to help you get it ironed out.
John
