Howdy,
I have not found a routine to extract usable
date/time information from the 60 bit uuid1 timestamp.
Is there not a standard solution?
I submitted an ASPN recipe to do it.

I'm interested in the use case for this.
Why would you want to extract the exact timestamp from the uuid?
Can't you just use the uuid as a unique identifier in time (in the abstract sense), and
work with a second variable that contains the time in a format you can easily process?
