gnomiOK, so. Here's the deal. I'm off to a conference in Virginia Beach next weekend (Shabbat of 9 March, Parshat Ki Tisa, Shabbat Parah). And, well. I'm not going to be able to light candles, since I'll be in a hotel (and hotels tend to frown on open flames). Usually in this sort of situation, I ask someone in the same Shabbat-starting-time-zone to keep me in mind when they light. However, I don't know anyone in the area who will be lighting (licht bentchen is at 5:42 PM in VA Beach). So, do I ask someone lighting earlier (Boston is 5:26), or do I ask someone whose lighting is later but still within "my" 18 minutes (Silver Spring is 5:51)?
(Yes, I plan to ask my rav this question. I was just wondering if someone knows the answer so that I don't have to add "ask odd question at kiddush" to my to-do list.)
