+Summary: DateTime Parsing Assumes GMT
+
+Please fill in this template when reporting a bug, unless you know what you
+are doing.
+Description of Problem:
+I've found another discrepancy between .NET and mono...
+
+The code below produces different results under Windows XP with .NET vs
+Linux with Mono.  Is this intended?  Note: The hours are out by the time
+zone adjustment.  So it's like Mono assumes the time is GMT while .NET
+assumes the time is relative to the system's time zone.  I haven't found a
+workaround so I wrote my own DateTime parsing code in the meantime.
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. Set time zone to be USA, CST (e.g. Chicago).
+2. Write a small sample ASPX page (e.g. datetimebug.aspx):
+<%@ Page Language="C#" %>
+<html>
+<body>
+Expecting hour to be 19...  It's actually...
+<%
+  DateTime date = DateTime.Parse("2002-12-16
+19:20:00");
+%>
+<%= date.Hour %>
+</body>
+</html>
+
+Actual Results:
+Expecting hour to be 19...  It's actually... 13.
+
+Expected Results:
+Expecting hour to be 19...  It's actually... 19.
+
+
+How often does this happen? 
+Every time.
+
+Additional Information:
+None.
