Since there appear to be people out there who delight in finding
ways of 'elegantly' doing things in perl...

I've got dates, in the form of 'Jun 27 04:11:47' that I need to 
compare to each other. (ala $date1 lt $date2, which won't work). 
Has someone come up with a fairly easy solution to this?  

Thanks..
