This line would be much simpler (and not have Y2038 issues) if I wrote 
it like this:

def date_format(etime):
   return time.strftime("%A, %b %d, %Y",etime)

But this was telling me that Easter falls on Monday!  Try it and see. 
Pythonistas help me out here... what's going on?

I guess this would do as well, at least for this application:

def date_format(etime):
   return time.strftime("Sunday, %b %d, %Y",etime)

Mark
