My site's RSS news feed has most of the items expected, but begins with two older items, both of which have pubDate tags with dates well before the rest of the items.

I looked at the revision history for the first post, and it doesn't appear to have been updated.

Does anyone have any ideas why this might be happening?

The reason there are old items at the top of the RSS feed is because they are sticky posts.
