If you care about intervals you'd better keep timestamps in SI seconds since some zero time point (just like OP wanted). TAI timestamps are pretty useless IMHO. They need to be converted to decimal/float for interval calculations and they don't represent any legal time. -- Leo -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
