The universe doesn't always make sense to you? :) I choose 99:59:59 as the offset limit as that's the maximum time value that can be represented by that number of digits. If someone wants to specify an offset of > 24 hours I'm willing to assume they know what they're asking. It doesn't cause us any pain as it fits within the format we're already supporting. Of course we could also optionally accept duration objects as offsets specifiers... That actually doesn't sound like a bad idea. :) -J --
