(Have you ever looked at some of the timezone schemes in use in India??) So, while testing this feature, I got to make up fun fictitious time zones, like: 22 hours 7 minutes and 30 seconds behind GMT Daylight savings time starts 30 seconds from right now Daylight savings time ends 1 minute 30 seconds from now I rather enjoyed watching my software clock jump around like that.
