JSON changing the format of the date in rails 3

Question

I have a datetime field in rails and it stores in the right format when I save an object from rails. But when I convert that to the JSON format, it messes the date format:

Format stored in the DB: 2011-04-27 09:18:00 -0400 but when I do JSON of that object it changes the date format to 2011-04-27T09:18:00-04:00

How can I keep the date format consistent?

I'm using render :json => @eventsList to render the object to :json

That works: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5370061/format-date-time-in-find-operation-in-rails-3/7479550#7479550 — hipertracker, Sep 20 '11 at 03:00
