Hey Maurice!

 MK> Nailed it!  :-)

Yep.  Looks good from this angle even though we both know that the offset isn't
correct for our actual location.  However it produces the same datetime once
corrected for utc so it wouldn't have mattered.

maurice@atom [ ~ ]$ date --date="02 Nov 14  12:10:20 -0500"
Sun Nov  2 17:10:20 UTC 2014

Note that there is no TZUTC in this reply as the datetime is already utc by
default and it makes absolutely no difference if there was a TZUTC since NOBODY
gets it right anyhow.  A total waste of bytes not unlike CHRS for utf-8.  ;-)

Life is good,
Maurice
