I find timezones rather fascinating - I think everyone should just move to the UK so that they're on the correct time :P

Honestly, the day's almost over in Australia!


TenPencePiece, you are right :) GMT (Greenwich Mean Time; aka UTC, coordinated universal time) is centered on you 8) :D .
I am -8 hrs from you (well, seven really; with Daylight Savings :roll: ).

Kjas, you are +18 hrs from me, so it's Thursday for you, me thinks :?:

Actually, I was trying to include it... :oops: .
Not as smart as I thought...... :doh: .

DST stinks :evil: . I wish we coud pick standard or DST and stick with one instead of changing it twice a year.
Oh well, another item for the list of things that won't change :wink: .

That's a Latitude thing, DST is fine. I just wish they could pick one and stick with it.

Off to work with me :D .

Yes I really hate timezones as well. By the time I get off work it's 1 AM in the UK witch means most of the interesting and fun people are gone for the night. :(

Who really needs things like sun light during the day anyways. :lol:

Well, at least I thought there were anyway

I can't be one anymore because I have to get up in the morning rather than the afternoon.
