Dear Mika,
Does this also explain the timezone issue?

Before my overly gregarious side generates more junk mail, can I simply change the values here?

Strange stuff what update-locale thinks here.
What did you do?
my environment file has no such in it.
mika@grml ~ % env | grep -e LC_ALL -e LANGUAGE LC_ALL=en_US.iso885915 LANGUAGE=us
dpkg --list locales cat /etc/environment /etc/default/locale grep en_US /etc/locale.gen
