date of a post

    Hello, I have a perhaps rather odd question regadering the displayed date of a post.
    I’m a dutch nursing student with an interest in the history of nursing, for which I made a wordpress blog to generate a timeline which I can fill in.

    Most of it works great as the chronological managing of a blog is cut out for this kind of thing; a post describing something that happenend in 1805 is saved like that (by adjusting the publication date), just as a 1900’s is, etc: you get the point.
    BUT: there seems to be a sort of a ‘bug’ (from my point of view): at a certain point (date) the posts aren’t viewed as, for instance, dating from 16 jan. 1905, but shown with today’s date. As far as I can tell ar turning point is located between 1977 and 1937: posts that are dated ‘after’ 1977 are viewed correctly, but counting downwards from 1937 today’s date is shown within a posting (although the URL shows the right date)
    This only concerns the displaying of the date; the entries are saved in the right way and also do appear chronologically correct in my archive widget.

    Can this be fixed?

    thanks in advances
