Yeah I guess that's why it interprets these terms. Good thinking :)
Isn't strtotime() based on some GNU utility?
Yeah, that's why I said "the relevant authorities". I couldn't remember

Apparently these strings are being recognized as TZ stamps, but the underlying

Try it with some TZ stamps ... I'm pretty sure that in the previous
