Yes, and we had three different ways to do things in a quite short timespan.
I agree with you about your method, myself I always forget the strtotime() and
how to use it with ease and it has been that I have reinvented the wheel with
making my own version to take a date in text format parse it and then feed it
to mktime() to get the unixtime.

It's both good and bad, as not all the solutions are good ones, as the one I
thought of before I posted my code, it's been a lot longer and really a pita
to debug.
