| awk '{ print $2 }' \
| sed 's/,$//'       \
| sed 's/"//g' )     \

for example:

	function substitute {
	if [ -z "$1" -o -z "$2" ]; then
	echo "Usage: substitue FROM_STRING TO_STRING [OPTION]..."
	echo
	echo "Replace all occurances of FROM_STRING (a sed-compatible regular"
	echo "expression) with TO_STRING in all files for which ack-grep matches"
	echo "FROM_STRING."
	echo
	echo "Any additional options are passed directly to ack-grep (e.g.,"
	echo " --type=html would only run the substitution on html files)."

	t = 236 # seconds
	Time.at(t).utc.strftime("%H:%M:%S")
