Time Calculations

[Thomas von Fintel]

To me, "15:45" <= "04:10" looks like a simple string comparison. Since 
"0" < "1" the result ought to be "false".

Looking at these strings as time, Revolution's answer still is correct. 
"15:45" surely isn't early than "04:10".
One of the advantages of using a 24h time scale is that string 
comparisons and time comparisons give the same result.

Maybe I'm missing something obvious.
