This is a frustrating part of Javascript that we have no control over and it should be common knowledge to web developers.\r\n\r\nThe `rx-date-select` _can_ be used on its own, but within Rackspace, it's more than likely going to be used in conjunction with a `rx-time-select`.  If a developer chooses to use `rx-date-select` on its own, it is their responsibility to know how it behaves with their logic.  As a developer, if I code my interface to only accept a date input, I should know the limitations of Javascript and I would need to do one of the following:\r\n\r\n0. hardcode my expected time zone when composing the ISO 8601 datetime string\r\n  1. `new Date(formDate + 'T00:00-05:00')`\r\n0. leave it as UTC\r\n  1. `new Date(formDate)`"}}
