You know, since time.sleep() builds up errors, this is what I do to keep it

hour = t[3]
min = t[4]

print "It is 8:05 AM. Please do whatever you are supposed to at this

Yep this is an option that makes sense to me, getting time once &
breaking it down with []'s to avoid the trap I almost fell into. I know
cron is probarbly the way to go but .... Its kind of nice to keep it all
Python if you know what I mean ;-)
