[Snip Ryan's example.]

*nix timestamps only have a one-second granularity.  If you're going
more granular than that, it's not the general *nix timestamp as measured
by seconds into the epoch.  There may be some extended format in some
software, but it's not the *nix timestamp standard as generated by time(2).

I'd suggest being more accurate in future.
