The time stamps are recoverable from the photos. Check out this article on the EXIF format.

I understand EXIF to a tee. My son is a professional photographer and I can brag he learn half of what he knows from me.

The problem with this article is this. The next two pictures were taken with a digital camera and have EXIF data. The two pictures that follow which are in the article posted on FR at http://eureferendum.blogspot.com/2006/07/milking-it.html do not have this information. In fact none of the pics in that article do. All four of these pictures were downloaded from their respective web sites using a simple "right click save as.' 

What I'm saying is the author of the article does not have anymore EXIF information than we do. So where did he get his times? He could only have used the dateline time. Unless for some reason he decided to strip out the EXIF information before he posted his article, but why would he do that?
