  Here is an example, a format for dates compatible with that specified 
! in the \rfc{822} Internet email standard.
! 	\footnote{The use of \%Z is now
! 	deprecated, but the \%z escape that expands to the preferred 
  	hour/minute offset is not supported by all ANSI C libraries. Also,
  	a strict reading of the original 1982 \rfc{822} standard calls for
  	a two-digit year (\%y rather than \%Y), but practice moved to
! 	4-digit years long before the year 2000.}
  
  \begin{verbatim}
! >>> from time import *
! >>> strftime("%a, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S %Z", localtime())
! 'Sat, 27 Jan 2001 05:15:05 EST'
