I am using java.util.TimeZone.getOffset() to find out the offset between
local time and Greenwich. I am running it on Eastern Time host.
I assume if I enter time within Daylight savings period  (from first
Sunday in April to last Sunday in October) the Offset should be 4 hours.
At regular period Offset should be 5 hours.
I am always getting 5 hours.
