Yikes. Can that be actually put into English? I've read thru it, and the only thing I can come away is that 'if UTC, then offset is required, and it can be anything from -23 to +23, including your example 0 meaning no offset from UTC. As it now reads, theres a ton of ambiguity that needs further clarification. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
