Because according to man date:
-d, --date=STRING
display time described by STRING, not ‘now’
my guess was that string is not time zone related. Maybe I am wrong. But I
change my time zone to Pacific time, adjust the machine time to Pacific time,
and I still got the same answer! So, I still find it strange. My machine is
set UTC time.
