[hobbit] silly-a** question on hobbit, timezones, and the dread purple status

[Larry Barber]

The purple status relies on the mod time of the status file, which uses the
Unix sytem time of seconds since the "epoch" so it shouldn't be affected by
the time zone or daylight savings time.

Thanks,
Larry Barber
