Ok, this may be a really stupid question with an easy answer that I 
know, but I can't seem to come up with it, and google isn't even 
helping.  But I need sleep, so my mind isn't working quite as normal.  
Here's the situation.  I've got a directory of images, and I'd like to 
find out the last time they were viewed.  I thought that ls 
--time=access would tell me, but i'm not sure if i'm getting accurate 
results because they're all being reported as being accessed today.  
any idears?
