Subject: Re: How to convert long/milliseconds to DateTime?

Thanks Gavin. I did a lot of Smalltalk programming in the 90's, so Ruby 
has a familiar, fun feel.

I tried this already:

t = Time.at(1161275493444)
puts t

Resulting in:
Exception: bignum too big to convert into `long'

No joy. Am I missing something (else)?

Thanks,

Mike
