      # <tt>Date.current</tt> returns a date equal to the argument, and
      # <tt>Date.today</tt> the date according to <tt>Time.now</tt>, which may
      # be different. (Note that you rarely want to deal with <tt>Time.now</tt>,

      # please always use <tt>Time.current</tt> and <tt>Date.current</tt>.)
