Picking times sucks :-( I picked 1500 UTC since it was the earliest that is still practical for people in US West Coast, and almost the latest that is still reasonable for Europeans. We could try to do an hour earlier or later than this. So, if we try 1 hour earlier, ie 1400 UTC, Thurs 22nd, does that work for other people too ?
