    TimeZone and DateTime - what were they thinking?

    TimeZone - the only instance you can get is one representing the local time
    zone
    DateTime - cannot represent a time before 00:00:00 1 Jan 1 CE

    What were they thinking? This is a serious question - can anyone come up
    with a good reason for these incredible design restrictions?

    Michael Brumm http://michaelbrumm.com has produced a fix for the first
    problem with his SimpleTimeZone class - good on you, Michael!

    Any thoughts on how to deal with the second problem?

    Cheers
