I did something similar in a servlet:
SimpleDateFormat sdFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("EEEE MMMM d, yyyy HH:mm:ss z");
String dateAndTime = sdFormat.format(new Date());
When Tomcat was running under linux-jdk1.3.1 it screwed up the time.
It also returned GMT-5:00 with the actual time short by an hour.
Under the FreeBSD native jdk1.2.2, the time was returned with EDT and
the correct time.
I haven't really looked into why. I usually use the native jdk, and I was
just playing around with the Linux jdk.
