Considering the time zone abbreviations that are accepted on input, I find a couple of bogosities:
WDT +09:00 West Australian Daylight Time AWST +08:00 Australia Western Standard Time WADT +08:00 West Australian Daylight Time WST +08:00 West Australian Standard Time WAST +07:00 West Australian Standard Time At least two of these are evidently wrong. Who knows which? FWT +02:00 French Winter Time FST +01:00 French Summer Time These are mixed up. (I doubt these abbreviations even need to exist. France uses Central European Time.) I also have some doubts about the terminology offered in the "History of Units" section. It says Julian day = invented by Scaliger, counts days from 1 January 4713 BC Julian date = invented by Caesar, predecessor of modern calendar However, my sources say that the first is the "Julian date" and the second is simply the Julian calendar.
