Since you were a good sport, I think these will be the most useful to  
you, depending on which you're most interested in --

- This is a timestamp in time_t format (seconds since the UNIX epoch)  
indicating the time the host last changed state.
- This is a timestamp in time_t format (seconds since the UNIX epoch)  
indicating the time at which the host was last detected as being in an  
UP state.

Either would be suitable for calculations or use in the 'date' command.
