We have a pretty common cultural conceit that time flows from left to right, no doubt because it's the way we read (I'd imagine the reverse would be true in cultures that read from right to left).

The formulation of the query does seem "programmer-ish". Ranges like "six months" are natural enough when you're doing a single-ended query like "search back two years". But when it's a constrained range, I usually don't want to figure out what "from eighteen months ago to six months ago" translates to, I usually just want to see "search between [june 2007] and [june 2008]".
