The dates showing up in post results aren't accurate as to when the post was actually made. I did a search on my username and got these results for the few posts(Sorted in posting date order):
Date reported by search........Actual post date
May 15, 2008 2:34 PM..........May 15, 2008 5:26 pm
May 14, 2008 9:45 PM......... May 14, 2008 4:53 pm

Those dates are accurate as far as the newest posts go.
Like I had pointed out in post#262, the
search result dates now reflect the newest posts in the threads. Not sure if this is a good idea but at least those dates are now giving us some idea whether there are newer posts added since we last post in the say threads. The search result dates are not the dates of your posts. You have to use the embedded "Jump to the post" link to go to your own posts and see the corresponding dates.
As for the time stamps on the search results, it seems to be
fixed on Pacific clock (PST time zone). Why have the search result default to a fixed clock anyway? I would think that should have been adjusted to the members' local time instead. At least it would have been less confusing and we don't have to do the time zone conversion in the head when ever a search is performed.
