    But to get Connecticut time correct, you have to adjust to -1 from GMT. If in fact we're not counting from Eastern time, assuming the GMT labels are now Eastern labels, should the offset not be zero?

    -1 for falling back?

    Greg's very first response was "EST" - Eastern Standard Time. This would be zero hours.
    It doesn't matter, I set it to minus one. I have no clue what will happen in the spring.

    Since it's all screwed up anyway, then why not?

    The server now resides in the Azores with this time correction.

    man, that's a dangerous place for a server. I always see end of the world specials which say the Azores will eventually collapse and send a massive Tsunami to the eastern seaboard.

    Azores. Isn't that the antithesis of ski resorts?

    It would be better to host it in the northeast, so if a blizzard wipes it out, we all will perish and never know...

    Just wanted to post something in this globally important thread.

    " Some failure in life is inevitable. It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously that you might as well not have lived at all -- in which case, you fail by default,"

    To beat the grim reaper in life it's not about how long you live but how you live it.
