| Please note that Hawaii has no daylight savings time (HDT - Hawaii
| Daylight) as stated on page 147 of the tar manual. We are always on Hawaii
| Standard Time (HST).
|
| Also, on page 146, the Alaska-Hawaii Standard zone (AHST) is called
| Hawaii-Aleutian Standard Time by section 263 of the United States Code.
