function date_timezone_abbr($refresh = FALSE) {
  $cached = cache_get('date_timezone_abbreviations', 'cache');
  $data = unserialize($cached->data);
  if (empty($data) || $refresh) {
    $data = array_keys(timezone_abbreviations_list());
    cache_set('date_timezone_abbreviations', 'cache', serialize($data));
