NAME
       Olson::Abbreviations -globally unique timezones abbreviation handling

DESCRIPTION
       This module should help you with	converting commonly used and often
       ambigious olson abbreviations into TZ offset notation.

   NOT COMPLETE
       This module is released as 0.01 because it is useful. It	is not
       complete. In order to be	complete in the	author's eyes this module must
       accept a	locale and disambiguate	based on that.

       EST is not ambigious if your standing in	the US or in Austrailia. This
       module should handle this properly in the future.

SYNOPSIS
       Quick summary of	what the module	does.

       Perhaps a little	code snippet.

	   use Olson::Abbreviations;

	   my $oa = Olson::Abbreviations->new({	tz_abbreviation	=> 'EST' });
		       $oa->is_unambigious; # returns 0
		       $oa->is_known;	    # returns 1
		       $oa->get_offset	    # dies
	   ...

METHODS
       get_offset  Returns the offset to UTC

       is_unambigious
		   Returns 0|1 based on	if the abbreviation is globally
		   unambigious to the whole planet

       is_known	   Returns 0|1 based on	if the abbreviation is known despite
		   if it is ambigious or not
