Leon-it is actually a bug in the class.  The server could possibly sends
a timezone in 'hhmm' format and the class treats the entire 4 digits as
number of hours which is totally incorrect.  I already provided the
quick fix so it won't take too much effort to put it in the load.  If
you tell me the direction then I can add it in the load so you don't
have to spend extra effort.
