Hi Thanks
i am doing this

#!/usr/bin/ruby
require 'rubygems'
require 'time'
expire_date = Date.parse("20130505172938Z")
current_time = Time.now.utc

#puts expire_date
#puts current_time

def days_away(from, to)
  ((to - from) / (60 * 60 * 24)).ceil
end

if days_away(current_time, expire_date) == 3
  puts "test"
end


but it giving me

/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/date.rb:1220:in `-': expected numeric or date 
(TypeError)
  from test.rb:11:in `days_away'
  from test.rb:14
