 |They shall go over the street and talk to the government member of
 |Iceland who is on this list.  (And maybe take a bath in the famous
 |hot paddle pond.)  Ie these are vikings, not chickens.

What i meant was: edit $(command -v tzselect) and change

  zonetabtype=zone1970

to

  zonetabtype=zone

and Iceland will appear in the Antarctic Ocean where it belongs.
