Um.. then how do I get the same ID when I call the replace method?


>>> a = datetime.datetime(2006, 8, 12, 10, 13, 56, 609000)
>>> b = a + datetime.timedelta(days=-2, hours=-4)
>>>
>>>
>>> id(a)
21838592
>>> id(b)
21836312
>>> a.replace(day=a.day + 1)
datetime.datetime(2006, 8, 13, 10, 13, 56, 609000)
>>> id(a)
21838592
>>>

thanks,
Rama
