How do I play dates and time?

[davewinter3]

I am doing a database dip and getting back the string 2007-05-27 11:23:33.000 from a datetime column. I would like to feed that into the /opt/swift/bin/swift (using swift.agi for Asterisk) and have it playback as "May 27th 2007 Eleven Twenty Thee AM"

Would I need to reformat that date and time information? Do I need to pass it into the swift binary with any specific flags? Is this even possible with Cepstra/swift?
