I poked around in the ftp server and noticed five files, all nice and big! I experienced difficulty in extracting the tzarchive.gz. so I thought I would contact you before trying any of the other files. I am interested in obtaining a file of the geocoded boundaries of the time zones. I realize that time zones are marvelously complex and frequently changing, so I don't expect perfection. Since I have access to Arc/Info, I prefer the GIS approach to laborious entry of data into a spreadsheet. Can you steer me in the right direction? -- Charlie Hendricksen veritas@u.washington.edu
