How to do date arithmetic

["Siegfried Heintze" <siegfried@heintze.com>]

Some time ago I posted a query on how to perform date-time arithmetic and
received a response that I should look at time-date.el.

I'm running emacs 21.1 and I cannot find time-date.el. Where is it?

I also received a response to use these attached functions. However, the
following fragment doesnot seem to work right:
(current-time)
(16033 34617 85000)
(my-emacs-time->seconds (current-time))
-22968561
(my-seconds->emacs-time (my-emacs-time->seconds (current-time)))
(3745 34606 0)

        Thanks,
                      Siegfried
