+# Seeing that the 28th is monday, I am guessing that she intends to say

+# There it appears that flights between Choibalsan and Ulaanbatar arrive
+# about 1:35 - 1:50 hours later in local clock time, no matter the
+# direction, while Ulaanbaatar-Khvod takes 2 hours in the Eastern
+# direction and 3:35 back, which indicates that Ulaanbatar and Khvod are
+# in different time zones (like we know about), while Choibalsan and

+# From Arthur David Olson (2008-05-19):
