[entry time]
HOST|SERVICE_DOWNTIME:downtime_id;host_name;service_description;downtime
_start;downtime_end;fixed_flag;duration_if_fixed;author;author_comment

Most programming languages have a localtime equivalent that can be used
to programmatically convert the date to a human readable format. You can
also use 'date' from the command line or any number of time conversion
websites for one-off's.
