# A correspondent informed me that Tokelau, like Samoa, will be skipping
! # December 31 this year ...
#
! # From Steffen Thorsen (2012-07-25)
! # ... we double checked by calling hotels and offices based in Tokelau asking
! # about the time there, and they all told a time that agrees with UTC+13....
! # Shanks says UTC-10 from 1901 [but] ... there is a good chance the change
! # actually was to UTC-11 back then.

! # <http://books.google.com/books?id=ZaVCAQAAIAAJ>, page 65, says Tokelau
! # was "11 hours slow on G.M.T." Go with Thorsen and assume Shanks & Pottenger
! # are off by an hour starting in 1901.
