Getting time components of date

Hi all,

While working to convert an AppleScript date to a MySQL DATETIME date (yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss) I ran into a small problem. While AppleScript supports things like:
month of someDate
day of someDate
year of someDate
etc
It doesn't provide for
hour of someDate
minute of someDate
seconds of someDate

but instead gives us "time string". Using this and some TID manipulation, I was able to get the information I wanted [1] but I think it should be easier. I've filed a feature request with Apple and hope that anyone else who agrees will do the same.

Thanks!

[1] See <http://moondrop.nilzero.com/archives/2003/12/22/ applescript_date_to_mysql_datetime.php> for how I did it - There's probably a better way, but this works for me.
