I'm doubtful this is a bug because of the fact that you are dealing with two timezones. The Date class converts times to client-local values based on the OS's timezone setting, so if the time in question is between 12:00 and 2:59 AM Eastern you will see a date of one day earlier when viewed in Pacific timezone. You can do some testing with date.toUTCString() to make sure dates/times are the same no matter what the client timezone is.
