Now that would be cool
Welll... we could always associate each person with their nearest ILoveBees.com axon, and use those GPS coordinates for their position.
... Oh, come on. That's gotta be worth a couple of cool points.

that wouldn't be that hard actually, its already in a database, you'd just need an image map with the link going to
zimezone.php?tz=[TIMEZONE CODE]
then a simple select:
select * from beekeepers where timezone = $tz
and there ya go!

haha! Oh my you people crack me up...
it doesn't have to be so complex... there aren't even 40 people on the list yet if you don't know what timezones the states or provinces are in, you gotta learn your country... and even then, if you don't know what timezone someone's in, click their name. The timezone should be entered there. hehe
I don't have THAT much time on my hands... sheesh... 3 months of ARG, working for a productive total of maybe 4 man hours in the office, and I still manage to set up a contact list for a small number of people, and it still aint enough
I love ya, all of ya
I'm interesting in seeing the results of the voting though
