I didn't fully realize how out of shape I was until yesterday, when I played a full four hours of paintball.  It was great fun since there were at least 12 of us at all times, and I think I had a couple good plays.  Reminded me of the brief times when I played Raven Shield.  Now, it would be nice when these sore spots go away.  Time to join a gym w/a pool, I guess, too ...

I figured out why my Gentoo Linux boxen continued to revert to DST (-400) time regardless of what my /etc/localtime was symlinked to.  Check out the defaults in /etc/conf.d/clock:

# If you want to set the Hardware Clock to the current System Time 
# during shutdown, then say "yes" here.

CLOCK_SYSTOHC="no"

Changing that variable to "yes" seems to fix the problem.
