Actually, I think it might use noon, but I'm not 100% sure; I'd have to
look at the code.  It's a standard time that is used throughout.

The Close Book adds 1 second to that time.  So it will always display as
that day, but not get chosen as that day.

The fact that there is a time at all in the 'post date' field has been a
major issue for years.  :(
