Solicitation of opinions on which Timeseries object(s) to utilize.

The certain problems with timeDate objects of Rmetrics is one of the 
reasons I posted this question.  I have found that even though you can 
give the timeSeries a financial center and a zone, the underlying 
timeDate object still defaults to GMT.  I have to pass or set the 
tz='EST5EDT' or something like that to get the correct numerical time 
integers.  I have not quite figured this one out yet.  This may also be 
an underlying problem with other timeseries packages but I thought 
determining the "best" timeseries package before progressing further was 
a better course .

Thank you all
