Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

First we should establish a means of starting on time. Is there a website with reliable time we can all use to start with?

How about the atomic clock: [link] (Eastern, but you can change the time zone) or animated (Java) at [link] (Mountain seems to be the default this time, but again, it can be changed).

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I don't feel like the comments are so timely as to require us all starting at the exact same moment. 7:00 Board time seems to be working out fine, or am I missing something?

Here I am

Here's the US Naval Observatory Master Clock. It matches my clock (which is set automatically from Apple's time server), which seems to match the Buffista's time stamp pretty precisely.

eta: delayed xpost a'cause that's the first time I've tried to make a link here.

While it does seem a bit overboard, it'd be easier to just know when to start. But we can all refresh until whoever says "go".

Or just press play at 7:00 board time.

Is there a clock somewhere that shows the board time?

Not that I know of, but the time you posted is shown on each post so you could compare what time the clock on your computer thought you posted to the time b.org shows on your post. (FYI it's the same as Pacific time)

"Things will swing back. They always do." - Louise

libkitty is right. There is a an atomic clock lying about. Just go to www.time.gov and choose a time zone. I used to set my watch by this clock until I started setting it by our work phones. Not as accurate, but more practical for reference shifts.
