Exclamation Moon Phase and Twilight Calculations

Heyya guys - I love the site.
The "Moon Phase" page with all of the twilight info for the week is a super bonus!!!

One nit...
I configured the User CP to set everything for Eastern US time and to autodetect DST. For the forums areas, everything works perfect.

When I get to the Moon Phase page, it properly shows the time zone, but doesn't take DST into account. So right now it shows me as -5 GMT (EST) instead of -4 GMT (EDT).

This error shows up across the entire page: the top for the "current moon" info and in all the tables under it.

Dunno if you guys use DST down under or not, and if you do, it probably isn't in effect for this time of year anyway. So this probably only effects the handful of us on the other side of the equator.

Anyway - its not a big deal to add an hour in my head for 6 months out of the year, so I'm not complaining. Just letting you know that all is not quite perfect with the page.

Thanks again for what is a nice little community site - keep up the great work!!!
