You can get the brain id via "brain.getRID()".

While it would not be necessary in principle (the "rid" is not part of
the meta data tuple) I am not sure whether access to the "rid"
nevertheless loads the tuple (and thereby your "DateTime" objects).

But you can access the rids avoiding the brains altogether:

  The usual catalog result is a "Products.ZCatalog.Lazy.LazyMap"
  instance. Its "_seq" attribute (obviously private) contains
  the sequences of rids corresponding to the query hits.
