Time Zone
Why are the times of posting listed as 6 hours earlier than Eastern? That's a time zone out in the Pacific somewhere. I could understand 5 hours later than EST, as GMT, but this goes the other way, and too far to be in the U.S. |

Re: Time Zone
I have SOOOOO been wondering this. I thought maybe the site was set in Hawaii, but then I found out that Mr Director is from the East Coast, so I just gave up trying to explainify it. |

Re: Time Zone
Actually there is a simple and meaningless explanation.
The server clock is wrong. It's been wrong for the last two years, and remains wrong now.
The reason that I don't simply change it, is because a lot of things are scheduled with the assumption that it's wrong, and thus may happen at wrong times if the clock were to be set straight. While I could just fix everything all at once (and should probably), I am currently just way too lazy :) |
