I don't think it really matters which method you use, as long as you pick
a server in your time zone. (duh). It should be rather self-explanatory,
but sometimes, it does happen. "Wow, my computer is always up-to-date
with New Deli". My script has the address for a server in Coos Bay, I
think. (I set it up about 6 months ago). The link that Bob sent had a
list of servers all over the world. Just load the page and do a search
(find in page) for "WA", "OR", or "CA". Some servers are by request
only, find one that's open to the public. Some require that you say "Hi,
I'm using your server."
