Has anybody noticed that the clock for this site is wrong, or am I in some kind of Canadian timewarp? If I select Eastern time (Greenwich Mean Time - 5 hours), I'm 2 hours out.
I have to select the time zone for Brazil, Peru, et al to get the site time to equal my watch. Not a big whoop but Logan or LML might be interested

I think that's because the server this board lives on is in Texas, so it would be 2 hours behind us...

or maybe I'm full of it...LML?

Yeah I noticed that too........I set it for Pacific time and it showed about 2000 miles out into the Pacific.........

I just adjusted it 2 hours East and now it's right on...........:banana2:

Sadly... no, you're not full of it (darn the luck!).

I think the system clock is behind two hours, because mine's the same way, and I'm in a central time zone!

Fixed. I had the server's timezone set incorrectly.

BTW: Texas is 1 hour different from east coast time.

Thanks for the fix-up. Logan.

Further to last...

Now we all have to back and re-adjust. If I'd known I was opening a can o'worms I would've kept me mouth shut.

OK, so I WAS full of it... all that space west of the Mississippi is just one big state, anyway... :)

D'OH!

"Fixed. I had the server's timezone set incorrectly."

Darn, just as I was getting used to that time zone, too. Guess it wasn't just a marketing ploy to sell more MM's to the hotshoes in Iceland afterall.
