I could really use a list of the names of time zones. In the U.S., for example, ours are named eastern, central, mountain, pacific, and I'm not sure of the couple of zones covering Alaska and the Aleutian Islands. I've seen different names for those zones in different publications. I know that Australia has half hour time zones. Do they have names for those? Does China still have one official time zone, keeping Beijing time, even though this zone crosses a number of standard meridians? Thanks for your help. Ross McCluney
