From ff0ff90148780703b7c8fd80924851ee610697c3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tim Parenti Date: Sat, 2 Jan 2016 12:17:35 -0500 Subject: Remove 00:01 where likely spurious. These transitions more likely occurred at 00:00, and any 00:01 appearing in references was likely for the purposes of clarification only.
