Christchurch is the biggest city in the South Island of New Zealand.
 
  
==Graticule==
+
{{graticule
Christchurch has a reasonably nice Graticule [http://irc.peeron.com/xkcd/map/map.html?lat=-44&long=172&zoom=9&abs=1| (-44,172)], containing about about 70% land, with Christchurch situated close to the middle.

===Timezone Complications===

The '''Christchurch''' [[graticule]] is at {{Today's location|lat=-43|lon=172|text=latitude -43, longitude 172}}
Because of timezone issues, the Dow Jones for a certain day doesn't open until 1:35am (2:35am during daylight saving) the following day in local time.
 
  
Saturday is no problem, but the rest of the week will have to be one day late or we need another source of randomness.
