Converts a Date instance to a Time, where the time is set to the beginning of the day. The timezone can be either :local or :utc (default :utc).

Examples:

date = Date.new(2007, 11, 10)
date.to_s                      # => 2007-11-10

date.to_time                   # => Sat Nov 10 00:00:00 UTC 2007
date.to_time(:utc)             # => Sat Nov 10 00:00:00 UTC 2007
date.to_time(:local)           # => Sat Nov 10 00:00:00 -0800 2007
# File lib/merb-helpers/core_ext.rb, line 18
def to_time(form = :utc)
  ::Time.send("#{form}", year, month, day)
end
