So, it turns out that there is, I believe, a critical difference here between the US view of timezones and the European one. In the US, timezones do not follow the boundary of the whole country, nor even States.
Canada, Australia, Russia, and Brazil, possibly among others, say "hi!"
So do Cyprus, the Kingdom of Denmark, France, the Kingdom of the Netherlands, Portugal, and Spain.
In Europe, by contrast, timezone boundaries are very much driven by country boundaries. Except where they aren't.
Zigactly.
ie. in Europe, you can map location to country (typically easy to do)
Except when it isn't (several well-known examples). -- Clive D.W. Feather | If you lie to the compiler, Email: clive@davros.org | it will get its revenge. Web: http://www.davros.org | - Henry Spencer Mobile: +44 7973 377646
