Oddly enough, if I just do a basic recipe with the following feed:

http://www.buffalonews.com/sports/sa...ontentId=77944

and set the oldest article to "1 day" in the dialog box, it knows the article date. Compare the log entries below to the ones from my original post.

Skipping article Will Enroth start? Mum's the word (Fri, 04 Mar, 2011 23:55) from feed Sabres as it is too old.
Skipping article Vanek, Stafford look to snap slumps (Fri, 04 Mar, 2011 23:55) from feed Sabres as it is too old.
Could I be parsing out some data needed for the calculation? Is it determining article inclusion from the RSS feed page or from the actual article HTML? Is there a different method called for parsing feeds when using the advanced recipe instead of the basic?

UPDATED: I just took that basic recipe, switched to advanced mode, didn't add a single line, and ran the recipe. The date was off again. Must be a different parsing of the RSS feed when you switch to advanced mode which is causing the issue.
