How about the following in crontab

This should execute 'script' every 18 hours as user someuser
No, that will execute it 60 times between midnight and 1am, and 60 times between 6pm and 7pm each day What would you recommend? I'd prefer using cron, if I can.... but if not will have to use 'at' ...though it seems limited by the fact that one cannot specify an 'every 18 hours' time-frame.
