The default calc-date-format in org-table.el uses a 12-hour clock, as
Stephan Schmitt discovered - see

        http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/7753


I think it would be preferable to use either a 24-hour clock (or an
am/pm indicator - imo, a 24-hour clock is better). Here is a patch
to make it into a 24-hour clock:
