adjusting score slightly by date field

Hello,

In our application there are a lot of old records that we still want in 
our index but would like for them to be scored lower than some newer 
records.

Is it possible for a date field to weigh in on the score slightly in 
some way?  Or if not is there another way to push up newer records in 
the order of results while still maintaining the scoring?

-Mike

Still under construction, but see the relevancy faq:

"How can I boost the score of newer documents"
