The date you get using as.Date on a POSIXct value depends on the timezone. That
is, as.Date only pays attention to the underlying UTC seconds-since-epoch
value, so it ignores the timezone which can be unexpected for most people.
TL;DR as.Date is not the same as as.POSIXct( trunc( dtm, units="days" ) )
unless you are using GMT.
