When it gets to the timezone "America/Chicago" at the end, this is

Do we actually *want* to support this? The "T" is supposed to mean that
the string is strictly ISO-conformant, no?
I didn't realize that appending a time zone was not conformant, but apparently
it's not.

Only appending a "Z" or an offset seems to be legal. Interesting.
In that case we shouldn't be accepting an abbreviation either.
