My Date is always 3 hrs off

[nfn11988@naples.net (Keith)]

I am having some trouble getting my time correct
on my Debian 1.3 system. I am in the Eastern time
zone. I type:

date 0722233098

To change the date to July 22 1998 11:30pm. It
changes the date, until I reboot. If I check 
my cmos clock it is right. So I am assuming that
it, meaning Linux, thinks I am in a different 
time zone or something.
  
This is what I get when I display the time and date:

Wed Apr 22 11:30:02 EDT 1998

But like I said it reverts back three hours slow after
I reboot.

Thanks,
Keith
