Rebol comes built-in with nice date & time features.
While it doesn't have all the bells and whistles you would get with a 3rd party library like the one posted here it does have an advantage that date & time are both first class datatypes:
>> type? 6-Aug-2014
== date!
>> type? 01:20:59 ; 1 hour, 20 mins and 59 secs
== time!
>> 6/8/2014 - 5/8/2014
== 1
>> difference 6/8/2014 5/8/2014
== 24:00
>> yesterday: now - 1
== 5-Aug-2014/13:12:33+1:00
>> yesterday/day
== 5
>> one-hour-twenty-mins: 1:20
== 1:20
>> one-hour-twenty-mins/minute
== 20
>> one-hour-twenty-mins/hour
== 1
>> two-hours: one-hour-twenty-mins + 0:40
== 2:00
