// Watch me get today's Date like a boss..
// In node:
var now = new Date(); // Wed Sep 17 2014 10:51:36 GMT+1000 (EST)
var today = new Date(now.toDateString()); // Wed Sep 17 2014 00:00:00 GMT+1000 (EST)
//Woo! it's still the 17th
//In mongo shell
var now = new Date(); // ISODate("2014-09-17T00:53:28.982Z")
var today = new Date(now.toDateString()); // ISODate("2014-09-16T14:00:00Z")
// WTF??! we've gone back in time, was toDateString being weird?
now.toDateString() // Wed Sep 17 2014
