Is the midnight of 1904 January 01 for day 0 of Macintosh dating in

AFAICT, AppleScript date/time values have no concept of time
zone. Midnight on Jan 1, 1904 is time 0. You can choose to
interpret that as UTC, but AppleScript won't help you out - for
instance, at that same instant in time that you call 0, a Mac in New
York would report time value -200.
No, no it wouldn't. That's completely the wrong number.
-300 is what I meant to type, but I was thinking minutes instead of
seconds. -18000 would be correct...
Must get new fingers. Maybe a new brain, too.
