same results for "ago" and "from now" about date HOT 7 OPEN

Interesting in node v0.10.25 using the current master branch I get

>   console.log(date('50 minutes ago'));
Wed Feb 05 2014 15:13:08 GMT+1100 (EST)

>   console.log(date('50 minutes from now'));
Wed Feb 05 2014 16:53:09 GMT+1100 (EST)

from date.

woah, weird, this was with 0.11.x, I'll try again tomorrow on 0.10.x

@visionmedia sweet! let me know how it works out for you. it's definitely a bit rough around the edges (esp with month queries) but i'm planning on picking it back up again soon.

Hey @matthewmueller let me know if you need help :)

from date.

console.log(date('50 minutes ago'))
console.log(date('50 minutes from now'))

@visionmedia also, one thing to keep in mind is that this parser prefers future dates (was made for scheduling). so if you type ambiguous phrases like '50 minutes', it'll assume '50 minutes from now'. that might not be ideal for logging. definitely down to explore ways to make it more general though.

@bulkan awesome! the 3 big things are:

1. getting english numbers working (in thirty minutes)
2. getting months working (march 5th, january sixth, 12th of march)
3. and #2
