	I missed the part about "!" in the command.  Thanks for the reply.   
I would have been at this for at least an hour of, "What the heck?   
Its all 'newer than' comparisons?  How did that guy do it?"  :)

	The command found a number of files claiming to have a date of 1903  
and 1933.  They were all files that I migrated over from the last  
server via "tar czvpf archivename -C original-directory" commands.  I  
don't know if this has anything to do with it.  I'm mentioning it in  
case someone comes across our posts in a search and they need to find  
the solution to this same problem.
