This function returns llGetTimestamp() with an hour offset. It will wrap day, month and year as required. If it is passed an offset of more than 24 hours either way, it will use the offset for US Pacific Time (SL time), automatically adjusting for DST.

<lsl> string sbGetTimestamp(integer intOffset) {

   }

   // Add a day to February in leap years
   if (intYear % 4 == 0 && (intYear % 100 != 0 || intYear % 400 == 0)) {
