What is "niceify_html_for_rss"?

And instead of
xml.pubDate(p.updated_at)

this would be better:
xml.pubDate(CGI.rfc1123_date p.updated_at)

Oh, it's something that just knocks out the HTML, etc. In that case HTML wasn't required.

RSS expects dates formatted according to RFC 822, so instead of

xml.pubDate(p.updated_at)


use

xml.pubDate(p.updated.at.rfc822)
