Python 1.5.2 didn't support augmented assignment. This
should be 

    t = t + 86400

instead. This is not the only statement where this
happens; on cursory glance, you'll need to replace 
a lot of other += constructs too. Or, upgrade to
Python 2.0 or 2.1 if possible.

By the way, these are the ugliest block delimiters
I've seen so far... <cringe>
