class DateTime
  # Returns the simultaneous time in <tt>Time.zone</tt>.

  #   DateTime.new(2000).in_time_zone  # => Fri, 31 Dec 1999 14:00:00 HST -10:00
  #
  # This method is similar to Time#localtime, except that it uses <tt>Time.zone</tt> as the local zone
  # instead of the operating system's time zone.
  #
  # You can also pass in a TimeZone instance or string that identifies a TimeZone as an argument, 
  # and the conversion will be based on that zone instead of <tt>Time.zone</tt>.
