Time Conversion Problem

[Ian Wood]

 From the docs:
'The seconds function returns the total number of seconds since  
midnight, January 1, 1970 GMT.'

In theory, you can work out the number of seconds from 1904 to 1970.  
Then take this away from the Apple seconds to to get 'Rev seconds'.  
Once it's in that format you can use the convert function to get many  
different formats.
