	There is the problem.  The error has nothing to do with matplotlib.  In 
one case you did "import datetime" and imported the datetime library. 
In the other you did "from datetime import datetime", thus importing the 
datetime type from that library.  If your first version is working, 
change the second version to use the same import.
