[Eug-lug] Time warp

[Rob Hudson]

In looking at the mail headers, it looks like "chezgeek.euglug.net" has 
a funky time setting.

Mine is:
Wed, 19 Jan 2005 21:26:37 -0800 (PST)

chezgeek is:
20 Jan 2005 05:24:42 -0000

If you subtract 8 hours from chezgeek, you get our localtime, so I guess 
that's right, but Thunderbird is telling me the stamp on this email is 
05:24, which doesn't seem like the right thing to do.
