We should detect time zone from browser and ask the user if they want to update their time zone, saved in user profile. Then we can know what verses to review.

Maybe I'll get this done this semester since I'm in France and 9 hours off from the server in California; it's 7:23 a.m. and I have no verses to review. :) I noticed that both Google Calendar and Todoist, for instance, asked me if I wanted to switch my time zone. Some other applications probably just use the time from the browser; one web app I wrote that's more JS than anything right now just grabs the date from the browser and does a callback to the server with that as a parameter, instead of assuming the server will know what the user's timezone is.
