>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: PySpark
>    Affects Versions: 1.6.1

> We use DataFrame.map to convert each row to a dictionary using Row.asDict(). 
> The problem occurs when a Timestamp column is converted. It seems the 
> Timestamp gets converted to a naive Python datetime. This causes processing 
> errors since all naive datetimes get adjusted to the process' timezone. For 
> instance, a Timestamp with a time of midnight see's it's time bounce based on 
> the local timezone (+/- x hours).
> Current fix is to apply the pytz.utc timezone to each datetime instance.
> Proposed solution is to make all datetime instances aware and use the 
> pytz.utc timezone.
