Regardless of what the current time/timezone is set to on
my computer, java.util.Date returns Pacific Daylight Time.
I have been unable to return the actual time (Central European
Time) at all. Also, notice the return value of getTimezoneOffset()
in the below code.

...

public static void main(String argv[]) {
  Date now = new Date();

  System.out.println("Now: " + now);
  System.out.println("TimezoneOffset: " + now.getTimezoneOffset() / 60);
}

The above returns (at 2:25pm CET on June 16):
  Now: Mon Jun 16 05:21:34 PDT 1997
  TimezoneOffset: -1

Shouldn't the TimezoneOffset be +1 for CET??
