I’m planning to make an application that needs to store dates way before 1970. Maybe even BC dates. Do you think I should store and handle that manually or can I use the Date/Time classes in Rails or use some plugin?
Thanks,
Tam

1970 won’t present a problem, nor will BC.
Is there something more specific that you’re trying to do?
