Unfortunately the compiler error is bizarre (due to some of the type shuffling 
involved), but the underlying problem you're experiencing is that 
DateTimeFields (and therefore JSONDateTimeFields) have a storage type of 
Calendar, and you're trying to assign a Date to them. Try Calendar.getInstance 
instead of new Date() and see if that resolves it for you?
