+# From J William Piggott (2016-02-04):
+# There is no location named Holiday Islands in Queensland Australia, holiday
+# islands is a colloquial term used globally. Hayman and Lindeman are at the
+# North and South extremes of the Whitsunday Islands archipelago, and
+# Hamalton is in between; it is reasonable to believe that this time zone
+# applies to all of the Whitsundays.
