That's nice. As I said on #perl, consider using Time::Timezone (or whatever
it's called - there's a Time::Zone, too, but I haven't compared them) to
convert named timezones to offsets, and then define your sub-areas as your
doing at the moment.

But nice. Very nice. I'll have to think of something else to fiddle with
now...
