There are only about 30 Time Zones, since by definition a Time Zone consists of all places where the local Winter Time has the same difference from GMT - see a Dictionary, such as <http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/time_zone> <http://www.chambersharrap.co.uk/cham...href.py/main?t itle=21st&query=time+zone> <http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/time+zone>. Time Zoning is not affected by Summer Time, except in the opinion of the semi-literates who write operating systems and suchlike. -- (c) John Stockton, nr London, UK. ?@merlyn.demon.co.uk Turnpike v6.05.
