It was hard back in the bad old days. You young'uns have it so easy now, with 
numeric time zone abbreviations for Novokuznetsk and Novosibirsk.

I love this from Mark's link:

   Changes to past and future time stamps

     Asia/Novokuznetsk and Asia/Novosibirsk now use numeric time zone
     abbreviations instead of invented ones.

I'll be able to say to people, sounding knowledgeable: "Oh, I remember the days 
when Novokuznetsk and Novosibirsk used to just invent their time zone 
abbreviations".
