[Zope] Funky dates

[Tom Scheidt]

I tried it with double quotes and got the same error.
The "%A" appears to be valid as well:

I had read something where dates in ZWiki need to be in the format of EST
rather than Eastern Standard Time? My dates currently look like this:
2002/01/05 16:13:00 US/Eastern.

Thanks.

Tom
