Sort folder list descending

Man, the AppleScript documentation is thick.

I'm able to easily sort a list of folders but can't get the syntax to sort it in descending order. Anyone?

tell application "Finder"
set myItems to (sort myItems by modification date)

Doing a reverse on the list after I get it doesn't appear to do anything. : /

Thanks.
