I was able to convert the datetime timezone from the datastore to EST
by following the http://timezones.appspot.com/

for example:
                        event.date = event.date.replace(tzinfo=TZINFOS
['utc'])
                        event.date = event.date.astimezone(TZINFOS
['est'])

This works great, however I noticed that EST is hardcoded to UTC-5:

def utcoffset(self, dt): return datetime.timedelta(hours=-5)

So when spring rolls around and we are in daylight savings, I'm going
to have to update the code to UTC-4, or my time will be off by an
hour.

It seems that pytz would solve this problem but I couldn't figure out
how to import it into my application.  I tried

import pytz

but got "error <type 'exceptions.ImportError'>: No module named pytz"

Any suggestions?  Thanks
