Default Just so we know who is sleeping

You'll probably have to set it up for yourself, but I need (really Joe?) to know what time it was where all you guys are. The cities I picked were:

Los Angeles, Denver, Houston, Philly, Portland Maine, London, Capetown and Melbourne. Pretty cool. And you can put them in time zone order so that it makes sense. Very easy.

That is pretty useful, joe. Cool site.
However, I've pretty much memorized them by now and I think this is how it goes:
As I'm having my after dinner coffee, steve (classic) is having his morning cup!
UK and SA boys are essentially the same time, so when I'm getting off work, they're going to bed (about 6pm here/midnight there)
Or, if I forget.. I just look for shadow's bitching and then I know he's awake.

Mark is on the same time as me. Joe... you're close enough.

Kool idea but I have enough to keep up with already. I'm on Eastern Standard Time if it matters. Up shortly after 6am, to bed between 11pm and 2am.

The time differences explain some of the weird **** (especially on a Friday night) that goes on in the saloon too . One person knocks off work, goes home, pats the kids and kisses the dogs (each to their own..) then has a few beverages..then a couple more and starts typing. The poor unsuspecting soul on the other side of the planet reads it first thing in the morning with their morning cuppa...
