tzselect: changing the timezone on your slicehost server

use the command tzselect

I was having issues with my rails-based cronjobs inserting different dates because of a difference between the date on my server and the date on my rails app (using Los Angeles time). I needed to make them match to fix this problem so I changed the time on my server using tzselect.

Nevermind, that didn’t really work the way I thought it would. I ended up just changing the crontab runtime to reflect the difference in time between LA and London.
