Why do some answers have the date and time?

Asked by intro24 (1434points) September 4th, 2008

I’m seeing that some answers have the date and time below them now. I can’t seem to remember seeing this awhile ago. Is this a new feature or some trend that I’m not aware of?

EXAMPLE
Below is the first answer I found with the date/time from ”Is it true that milk is bad for your bones?”:

“I don’t believe him either.
I have been told that the Vitamin D and calcium in milk is indeed good for your bones.

The user puts it there (hoping it will be a feature on the site) but it won’t :)

It’s not a new feature. It is only JackAdams way of letting us know when and where he has been on fluther. He seems to like doing it.

That would be Jack date and time stamping his answers.

Thanks everyone. I could have sworn that more people did that date/time stamp but I guess it was only him.

Who has the time to do that… Pun intended. By the way, I am from the future.
