Yikes.  Hebrew and related scripts hadn't occurred to me---but does
anything -else- in Myth deal correctly?  For example, does MythWeb's
schedule listing flip right-to-left in such locales?  If not, I'd
guess that catering to right-to-left scripts should -not- be addressed
here, either, unless it's acceptable to make this readout much longer
for all locales, just to avoid confusion in the very small number of
users in locales which run right-to-left.

In particular, if schedule listings are always left-to-right, then I'd
argue that -even in- locales where writing is right-to-left, it still
makes sense that "earlier" means "left" in every display, including
this one.  (If we have anyone on the list who uses right-to-left
locales, maybe they should speak up...)

(Isn't this readout supposed to be part of a quick-to-scan table?
If so, brevity actually makes sense here, because it makes reading
the table faster and is more likely to have similar things aligned.)
