  You can actually do this using 'newer' and 'older' conditions.  They 
compare dates or numbers, and are equivalent to greater and less, 
respectively.

  We have a set of lists internally that we limit based on someone's 
position in the company and the size, so I use the newer condition mixed 
with LDAP queries.
