Good grief. have the machine keep time in GMT; allow the user to enter a little table-file to describe local idiosincracies of keeping time. Presto - problem solved - WORLD-WIDE. Is that really too hard? Time display is done again customized by user: GMT, local, NY, TIMBUKTU, or any other place in the world, so you can see as many different displays as you want. It's so simple, it's embarrassing.
