+From Date::Simple(3) man page:
+
+Dates are complex enough without times and timezones. This module may
+be used to create simple date objects. It handles:
+
+Validation:
+ Reject 1999-02-29 but accept 2000-02-29.
+Interval arithmetic:
+ How many days were between two given dates? What date comes N days
+ after today?
+Day-of-week calculation:
+ What day of the week is a given date?
+
+It does NOT deal with hours, minutes, seconds, and time zones.
