can someone explain to me why i get different values for the tm_yday and tm_isdst values? >>> import rfc822 >>> rfc822.parsedate('Mar 1 01:03:59 2004') (2004, 3, 1, 1, 3, 59, 0, 0, 0) >>> import time >>> time.strptime('Mar 1 01:03:59 2004', '%b %d %H:%M:%S %Y') (2004, 3, 1, 1, 3, 59, 0, 61, -1) thanks, bryan
