What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.add an event @ 9999 BC .. in the xml file
2.add an event @ 10000 BC .. in the xml file
3.refresh browser 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
you will see the 9999 BC event, but not the 10000 BC event.

What version of the product are you using? On what browser and what
operating system?
Simile Timeline 2.3.1 - XP Pro SP3 - FFox 10.0.2

Please provide any additional information below.
I tried with -10000 and 10.000 BC and 10,000 BC formats .. nothing changed

Please advise,
thanks!

I'm having this issue as well. I'm using "startdate":   "-13000" for one of my 
events and "startdate": "-10800" for the other. They do not show on the 
timeline, but they are on the link "2 results out of 367 cannot be plotted".

I've also tried changing my js file to have "startdate":  new Date(-13000,0,1) 
and "startdate":  new Date(-10800,0,1), as suggested by one comment on a simile 
timeline site (somewhere) but to no avail.

Hmmm. Javascript Date supports dates that far back. So probably a Timeline 
issue.

I'm sorry, Xai, but unfortunately I have no time these days to work on 
Timeline. I'd like to spend time on it, but it just isn't currently practical. 

Timeline is open source software. So you can work on solving the problem 
yourself, you can find a friend to do it, or you can hire me or someone else. 

If you do solve it, please send us a patch so it can be included in the next 
release for all to benefit from. 

I look forward to working on Timeline again once I have time to work on an open 
source project.

Regards,
Larry Kluger
