RE: Mcsec in Timestamp, is it possible?

Hey cool... (I just posted an example of this, too)

Any idea why the timezone from the gettimeofday call does not work?

At least, it doesn't on my (brand new) V4R5 system.  It just returns
zero, so I had to get the sysval QUTCOFFSET in order to figure out
the timezone...
