There should be a fix because people need to use that information, not dig around on the Internet, figure out how braindead the timestamp is, and come up with a scheme to read it in human-readable form. Quest Software fixed it by providing a conversion method.

I was asking about fixing *accessibility to the information.* Which is far more important to me than what shell handles what arguments, and how the pipelines work.
