There are much better scripts available.

Why don't you take a look at : http://www.thirdgeek.com/nseconomy.php

I have used that same script on my own website for calculations of the six warzones.

Hi, I've been playing NS for quite a while now, read the forum for a while, but this is my first post here. Anyway, I'll cut to the chase.
I use Mozilla 1.7.1 (or, whatever the current version happens to be), and when I'm logged into my nation and try to access the forum, I get a blank page with a gibberish address in the URL bar, in the form of http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/nsredir.php?CHK=...&AUTH=...&forum=2(I take it the CHK and AUTH fields are specific to my particular nation and/or session, so I removed those.) This is from any link from the NS website, whether it be the 1) Main bold "FORUM" link, 2) link to the Tech forum on the known issues page, or 3) the links to the most recent discussion items (at the bottom of the left sidebar).
In the meantime, it seems the workaround for me is 1) logoff of my nation from NS proper, 2) access the forum while not logged in, and 3) Login from the main forum page.

Just thought I'd let you know, since not everyone uses IE.

That page is the script that logs you into the forum. As you can see, it's currently not working.
Admins are aware of the problem and it will be fixed soon.

theres no predefined system of NS time -- it's fluid time.

As I notice what I described above is now officially Known Issue #2 on the Known Issues page, I am happy to report that I was able to flawlessly link to the forum by clicking on the link on the NS sidebar.

Now that think about you mayby right because some live on diffrent planets. On some planets a year could be a half "earth" year and so on.
