i wanted to create a date object for 2008/SEPTEMBER/19.  
so I wrote the following.

```auto

var myTime:Date = new Date(2008,09,19,12,0,0);
trace(myTime); // Sun Oct 19 12:00:00 GMT+0300 2008

```

as you can see, i prints Oct instead of Sep.  
why is this happening?  
what`s the logic behind date object?
