Missing something about timezones

[Skip Montanaro]

Is this correct (today, with Daylight Savings in effect)?

>>> import pytz
>>> i.timezone
'America/Chicago'
>>> pytz.timezone(i.timezone)
<DstTzInfo 'America/Chicago' CST-1 day, 18:00:00 STD>
>>> ot
datetime.datetime(2016, 3, 14, 9, 30, tzinfo=<DstTzInfo
'America/New_York' EDT-1 day, 20:00:00 DST>)
>>> ot.tzinfo
<DstTzInfo 'America/New_York' EDT-1 day, 20:00:00 DST>

Shouldn't the America/Chicago timezone reflect DST?

Thx,

Skip
