DESCRIPTION

12       This module should help you with converting commonly used and often
13       ambigious olson abbreviations into TZ offset notation.
14
15   NOT COMPLETE
16       This module is released as 0.01 because it is useful. It is not
17       complete. In order to be complete in the Author's eyes this module must
18       accept a locale and disambiguate based on that.  EST is not ambigious
19       if your standing in the US or in Austrailia. This module should handle
20       this properly in the future.
