[OTTSTA] How late Lotusflow3r will open, in maany time zones So you moved your bed to your computer, bought seventy-seven cans of Red Bull and are looking some purple bars with a clock ticking. On your computer screen.
I'll tell you, get up, you don't need to wait in front of that screen! Below you'll see how late the site will open, corrected for the time the clock on your wall is showing you! But hey, English is not my native language and this story is getting way to complicated, here're the times: Europe GMT+0 (London): 25/03 @ 03:07
GMT+1 (Amsterdam, Paris, Berlin etc.): 25/03 @ 04:07 GMT+2 ..I think you can superpose one hour to the previous one. USA GMT-5 (New York): 24/03 @ 23:07
GMT-8 (Los Angeles): 24/03 @ 20:07 Australia GMT+10 (Sydney): 25/03 @ 14:07
FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions, not a region on planet earth) Q: What does [OTTSTA] mean?
A: One Topic To Stop Them All (referring to the unlimited amount of topics containing one and the same question) Q: Does this mean the site will open in shifts? Not at the same moment everywhere? A: NO. More info here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_zone EDIT: It's maybe better to attach this info to one of the featured posts, and then just remove my post... I now see that this is also one of those many posts.... [Edited 3/23/09 13:27pm] [Edited 3/23/09 14:56pm] Want the latest updates around Prince and Lotusflow3r?

I think we have 8 time zones for the USA (and its territories, like Puerto Rico)..
Current time in the Pacific time zone: http://www.time.gov/timez.../d/-8/java (uses military time) People can use the Int'l Time Zone Clock & Meeting Planner to figure out the local time World Clock, real time http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock Meeting Planner http://www.timeanddate.co...eting.html Hag.

Have you allowed for the fact that the US moved their clocks to Daylight Saving Time already but in the UK and many European countries the clocks don't change to Summer time til this Sunday coming?
If its 7:07pm in LA on Tuesday I make it 2:07am Weds UK time. I think  [Edited 3/23/09 14:40pm] Homer Simpson: "I call the big one Bitey"!! | |

[Edited 3/23/09 14:40pm] hmmmm.... didn't think of that... I calculated everything from my own clock, GMT+1. We didn't do any DST here yet so the Europe times are fine. To calculate the other I used some great online tool which helped me subtracting and adding hours, even though I filled in the date in the tool, I don't know if it corrects for DST... Irritating, but anyways, since I'm typing this from my phone in a bus and I have to get out now, I can't update the post directly. If anyone wantts to do the math, please don't hesitate and I'll update my post asap. Want the latest updates around Prince and Lotusflow3r? Follow me on Twitter! http://twitter.com/funkynews | |
