I believe that the point is: If you have the user's timezone, you can /know/ if they are in DST through modules such as pytz+datetime.

The current implementation of 6.170 is "build a webapp in python". I seem to recall that they were using Flask, but that might have changed as this is pretty new.
6.00 is a class on programming in python. There are IAP (January) classes on C++, python, and a few more.
Other than that, though, it's all in the context of "do a project with language x" and not "learn language x."

Well, wikipedia has references in this section:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methanol#Toxicity
Specifically, anything with a strong ethanol content will help, as the damage caused by drinking methanol results from the byproducts of you body processing the poison. The biological pathways that process methanol have a greater affinity for ethanol, so drinking whisky (or everclear or 151) or any other strong alcohol will keep you alive until your body has a chance to eject the methanol as a waste product.
