I have looked at the patch in the tracker.

Caveat: I haven't tested anything - this is just based on my reading.

I think the patch is good. The issue I see is that Scrubber.py may not
currently be doing the right thing if parsedate() returns None.

Consider the attached patch for Scrubber.py in addition to the patch in
the tracker.
