+    ;; Viewers do not receive timezone information from the server - almost all (?) default to Pacific Standard Time
+    ;; However, they do rely on the server to tell them whether it's Daylight Saving Time or not.
+    ;; Hence, calculating DST based on a different timezone can result in a misleading viewer display and inconsistencies between grids.
+    ;; By default, this setting uses various timezone names to calculate DST with regards to the viewer's standard PST.
+    ;; Options are
+    ;;   "none"     no DST 
+    ;;   "local"    use the server's only timezone to calculate DST.  This is previous OpenSimulator behaviour.
+    ;;   "America/Los_Angeles;Pacific Standard Time" use these timezone names to look up Daylight savings.
