[ale] re: timezone

}Folks -
}
} Sorry for cluttering ALE with this question, but I figure it's probably
}the quickest way to get an answer.  How do I change the timezone on my
}machine?  I always used to use Slackware's setup program, but it doesn't
}seem to want to work anymore.
}
} My machine has been back on the east coast for a month now, but is
}still stuck in Pacific Daylight Time.  Please help!
}
}Thanks,
}
