Yup, that's why all the SoW timings I have were done via SoW
cast on my character. Same computer, same connection, and
often times same location and time of day (accounting for
variable lag). I always do a baseline check with normal
running speed every time I do another test, and normalize
against that before adding it to the chart.

Hmm, I wonder if this means I have an excuse for getting
JBoots... :-)
