A timezone is an arbitrary geographical designation. It has nothing
to do with latitude or longitude. While some time zones may be
defined as a geographical region between two longitudes, others may be
defined by geographical borders or convienent terrain features. Take
a look at the international date line. It doesn't follow a
longitudinal line, but instead jogs east around Asia and then west
around the Aleutian Islands.
