You may need to do some cleaning up or better filtering. ParentID
195203 has three dates associated with it which spits out as both a
date and a date value (some normalization please?!?!?). Since you
aren't singling out any of these dates it returns all three dates for
each result... therefore the triplication.
I hope that helps somehow.
