Facts

Show reasoning

I followed this chain of reasoning:

By calculation (generator: ["now@trueknowledge.com"]) I know that:
The current time is February 13th 2012, 06:11:59

I know from locally stored knowledge that:
Fact 1: Japan Standard Time is the time zone for Japan ([fact: ["20031437@trueknowledge.com"]])

Fact 1 is true for July 14th 2007, 00:00:00 onwards ([fact: ["20031438@trueknowledge.com"]])

By calculation (generator: ["timeperiodtopoint@trueknowledge.com"]) I know that:
Fact 1 is true at February 13th 2012, 06:11:59

I know from locally stored knowledge that:
Fact 2: +9 hours is the time zone differential of Japan Standard Time ([fact: ["20031436@trueknowledge.com"]])

Fact 2 is true for August 20th 2010, 15:32:57 onwards ([fact: ["933760562@trueknowledge.com"]])

By calculation (generator: ["timeperiodtopoint@trueknowledge.com"]) I know that:
Fact 2 is true at February 13th 2012, 06:11:59

By calculation (generator: ["timepoint_sum@trueknowledge.com"]) I know that:
February 13th 2012, 15:11:59 is the timepoint sum of February 13th 2012, 06:11:59 and 9 hours and 0 minutes

By calculation (generator: ["local_time_equivalent_to@trueknowledge.com"]) I know that:
February 13th 2012, 15:11:59 JST is the local time equivalent to February 13th 2012, 06:11:59

By calculation (generator: ["strictequal1@trueknowledge.com"]) I know that:
February 13th 2012, 15:11:59 JST is strictly equal to February 13th 2012, 15:11:59 JST

By calculation (generator: ["local_time_in@trueknowledge.com"]) I know that:
Fact 3: February 13th 2012, 15:11:59 JST is the local time in Japan

Fact 3 is true at February 13th 2012, 06:11:59

I used the following facts to provide this answer:

Japan Standard Time has been the time zone for Japan since at least July 14th 2007, 00:00:00
