No, I had to check myself.

The original example was written years ago (because I use that
application to visit a real film festival: http://filmfestival.be/ ).

Then I remembered that dates and time in Java are... strange.
For instance: the index for the month of January is 0 instead of 1.

Ugh, sorry about that. All the Java programmers on the list were probably 
thinking "ah, silly .NET programmer" ;-) Saw the value and assumed it was an 
offset of Unix time.

And it's a good thing you named the variable that way, or it would have taken 
me a lot longer to figure out why the blocks were running off the time table :)

The funny thing is that 9:30 is 3060l in Java.
Time starts at 1AM in Java (which is confusing).
