   !Python… I hate you… why does !Ubuntu's python support time.strftime('%z'), but NOT time.strptime(s, '%z')? Timezone hell

     @samatjain bugs.python.org/issue6641 - looks like strptime was patched for %z in py3k (although they apparently didn't update the docs)

     @jtatum Yeah, I saw that bug. Need to wait for Python 3.2 for a fix. Doesn't help me with my 2.x scripts…
