:I was using ftp.
:But even if the ftp program was copying the original timestamp, it didn't
:get the time right; the date would have been right.

    The time is probably off by the difference between time-zones.
    The FTP server tends to report timestamps in localtime which is
    converted to localtime on the target machine.  This tends to
    mess up the time stamps.

    rdist, rsync, and scp are more accurate.
