International Support

I was up early on a beautiful Thursday morning last week when it struck me that what I really wanted was a delicious plate of flapjacks from everyone's favorite eatery here in Madison. Unfortunately, it just happened that I was in Moscow traveling on business at the time and I realized that it wasn't possible for me to enjoy their fresh blueberries folded into their delicious buttermilk batter.  

However, it occurred to me, the next best thing would be to use what little remaining international Skype call credit I have to give them a call, tell them how much I missed them, and have them describe the unique flavor of their slow cooked Fox Valley pulled pork to me over the magic of transcontinental submarine cabling.

I threw open my laptop and typed "http://isshortstackopen.com" -- to my delight, I was greeted with the three most comforting letters in the english language: Y, E, and S!  A few clicks later and Skype's familiar ringing let me know I was only moments away from hearing all about shortstack's cage-free eggs and spicy homemade cajun sausage gravy. 

Skype rang and rang and rang, but no-one picked up.  Certain that it was impossible for the wonderful folks there to be ignoring me, it slowly dawned on me: Moscow is 9 hours ahead of Madison, and it was still only Wednesday night back home in Wisconsin.  Shortstack wouldn't be open until after my nightly goulash, at which point I'd be halfway through a bottle of *Русский Стандарт водка* and flapjacks would be the furthest thing from my mind. 

However, instead of moping, drinking, or playing another game of roulette, I decided I would use the skills, knowledge, and advanced hatred of timezones and date/time logic I've built up over the years to save the next poor, hungry, homesick soul from the torture I had to suffer; hence this pull request.
