Hi Marvin -- NO -- I have been following from the beginning.  Yes, I
might have helped by including a smiley face, but I was seriously making
some obsevations about the specific cases that Christain saiud he would
handle in a very arbitrary way without looking at any other information,
such as the .toplevel domain of the originator.  It seems to me that in
the cases where he wishes to be totally arbirtrary, that the information
in the originators toplevel domain is relevant and close to conclusinve.

That is all that I intended to convey.  I do not suggest a general tie
between any time zone and any toplevel name, for all time zones and all
toplevel names.


Cheers...\Stef;-)
