@tbranyen so, given '1313212826216 -0600', how do you convert that into UTC?

this might be what I'm going for -- show the originating "local" time for a timestamp, along with the UTC offset.

(e.g., given 1310976115000 -0700 and I am UTC-0500 (CDT), I want to see 'Mon Jul 18 01:01:55 2011 -0700', not 'Mon Jul 18 2011 03:01:55 GMT-0500 (CDT)'
