        "Congratulations!  Your OS has a bug in the time of day ".
        "code.  This bug causes dates to slowly travel backwards in time ".
        "and interferes with PilotManager's performance.  This bug is ".
        "caused by having a bad timezone environment variable setting. ".
        "Your timezone is set to\n\n\t$ENV{TZ}\n\nYou might try setting ".
        "it to a more specific timezone, for example US/Pacific maps ".
        "to:\n\n\tPST8PDT\n\n" .

        "course.\n\nPilotManager will not function until this is fixed.".
