In Rails, what's the nicest way to create a specific time (not now) in a particular time zone?

Question

Here\'s one way, but it\'s can you think of a nicer or more \'railsy\' method?

>> Time.use_zone(\'Sydney\'){ Time.zone.parse(\'2011-04-12 2pm\') }
=> T         


        

Answer 1

How about using the *in_time_zone* helper..

Time.now.in_time_zone('Sydney')
