Wow. Yea, that caused me quite a headache. I didn't realize that. Spent
forever trying to figure out why GMT+5 kept subtracting hours.

Ok. Well then I can't use em. I've got to be able to use zones that
exist in Perl, PHP and MySQL.
If your timezone isn't in the database, you should
mail the database maintainers to get it added.
Hehe. I'm the DBA. And I've updated everything to most recent stuff,
but the boss man wants "generic time zones" in our list "just in case" a
customer can't find his or doesn't realize his city is listed differently.
Thanks,
Matthew
