This is wrong in the code but for logical reason. IS_DATE should not accept
the timezone info. That is because unless you know a time of the time, it
is not possible to determine the date (and time of the day) in the other
timezone. This is reflected in the fact that datetime.date does not take a
timezone while datetime.datetime.
There are two ways out:
1) drop the IS_DATE(timezone) argument
2) make an implicit assumption about the time of date (always 00:00:00?).
Suggestions?
