52:           d = d >> options.delete(:months) if options[:months]
53:           d = d +  options.delete(:days)   if options[:days]
54:           change(options.merge(:year => d.year, :month => d.month, :mday => d.day))
55:         end

Returns a new Time representing the time a number of seconds ago, this is basically a wrapper around the Numeric extension Do not use this method in combination with x.months, use months_ago instead!
