Display current time?
The recent time postings prompted me to post something I've been thinking for a while.
I'd find it really useful if the current time in flyertalk land was always visible somewhere on the page (maybe on the banner?).
When you're trying to work out when something was posted, it'd be a lot easier to just look at the clock and say "half an hour ago" rather than try and do the time-zone mental arithmatic gymnastics which we all spend enough time doing anyway!
Just a thought...

Why not just get a free clock from any of the shareware places and set it to the flyertalk and set it in the tray? I don't think they need more code to display the time on every page for every user.
