	And make sure it can handle:

		- Daylight savings

		- Places with local times > 12 hours before/prior GMT
		  (such as Tonga)

		- Solar time (this is HARD - many Arab countries use the
		  times the sun rises/sets rather than 'mechanical' time
		  (maybe that's what the map DA is really for))

	And make sure it works with A/UX .... (which, being Unix, uses GMT
	internally) ... at the moment during daylight savings my system is
	out by an hour when I switch between the two different OS's
