What is the proper (most efficient or preferred) format for using dates 
in Timeplot?

I have several time series text/cvs files with separate columns for 
year, month, day, hour, minute.  (Much of my data is hourly or 
sub-hourly.)  Would it be best to...

1) load the data as is and then process through javascript to merge 
strings or use something like "new Date(Date.UTC(2008,0,17,20,00,00,0))."

2) pre-process the data to create another column with an efficient 
format, maybe as "1995-02-04 10:20:01Z" or "1995-02-04T10:20:01+5:00"?

3) something else?
