Hey Dallas!

It doesn't surprise me any.

From this perspective it had issues with PST8PDT.  I don't recall which, PST or PDT, was an hour out.  Not really a biggie though given the issues caused by the change over twice a year.  That is one reason I stick with UTC which doesn't suffer from switch over issues.

For the record the Maximus opensource was available at one time and might even still be for all I know.  I did manage to successfully compile it with whatever version of gcc I had at the time but never did actually run it.  I did use the opensource Squish but that was before we were linking.  By the time we became links I was using all my own homegrown stuff which I am still using as we speak.  Speaking of which I still have you as a link although we actually haven't exchanged anything since Alan took over.  It should still work.

Life is good,
Maurice
