Time.parse unavailable

Hello,
I have Ruby 1.8 installed on my Debian Unstable box.
When I type Time.parse in Irb it returns
NoMethodError: undefined method `parse' for Time:Class

RDoc says parse (as well as for example httpdate) are available
in the Time class.

What could I be doing wrong ?
Thanks
