date stamps; albums

How much do the date stamps on my photos bug people? They bug me some, but it's also nice to be sure not to lose the date, though that's also encoded in the file, I believe. My camera always defaults to that when I change the batteries. Now I feel like I want all the Brazil pics to be consistant.

I'm dumping all my pics into the Brazil 2008 album. Over time I'll sort them into albms by location and delete the really bad ones.
