I'm still not 100% sure what you're trying to do with the
interpolation across midnight issue, but if you're working with times,
then why not convert everything to Julian date, do your operations,
then convert back? Okay, you'll need to keep a few double precision
numbers around, but that seems like a simple request.

The second answer, Yes that's how you do it.
