Hey Osmar - could you please clarify why you decided to change the
time zone? Wikipedia tells me
(<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_in_Chile>) that in September, the
continental Chile is using CLT, Chile Standard Time, which is
UTC-4:00. With the solution you wrote about, you'll losing one
precious hour! :-)

Thanks,
Tomasz
