title: Is Date.today in UTC?
body: <p>Calling <code>Date.today</code> in Ruby returns the current date.  However, what timezone is it in?  I assume UTC, but I want to make sure.  The <a href="http://ruby-doc.org/stdlib-1.9.3/libdoc/date/rdoc/Date.html#method-c-today" rel="noreferrer">documentation</a> doesn't state either way.</p>
