dhesi@bsu-cs.UUCP (Rahul Dhesi) <5698@bsu-cs.UUCP> :
-The file is being stored in the archive with its timezone 64 hours west
-of where you are.  At extraction time zoo adjusts the time for the
-timezone, yielding a wrong timestamp.  (Since the zoo code was not
-designed to handle timezones larger than 24 hours away, this may cause
-other overflow problems somewhere.)


So zoo won't port to slowly-rotating planets, huh? 
(I didn't realize the Internet had such good connectivity :-)
