I'm a little confused about the TIME_ZONE setting in settings.py.  I
originally had it set to 'America/New_York', because that's the time
zone where I'm located, but I noticed the times were ~4 hours off when
I would save an object that had a DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)
field in the model.  Instead I tried to set the TIME_ZONE value to
where the web server was, Utah, so I used 'America/Denver'.

I saved an object while configured for Denver, timestamp was for
2:40am.  I changed the setting back to New_York and saved another
object, the the timestamp was for 2:52am.  Local time for me was
~10pm.

datetime.datetime(2008, 8, 25, 21, 9, 15, 497672)

$ date
Mon Aug 25 21:09:45 MDT 2008

I would like the times to shown as Eastern Time zone.  What should I
set the TIME_ZONE setting to?
