Time Stamp


Hi Doug,

Maybe you've already addressed this here, but is there anything you can do to put this on Pacific time..the time zone that most of us are in? It's hard to tell when things are posted.

Thanks

Actually, the system works off of GMT. When you signed up, you told the system how many hours to offset from GMT. Typically Pacific Time is -8, but it's now Daylight Savings Time in most of the U.S. (and Baja), and therefore there's an hour less difference at the moment. The system has no way to know who is in DST and who is not.

The setting can be changed in your profile. Just add an hour for DST (-7 in California).

Good question. I've got some email inquiring about it, but not on the board.

Regards,

Whoops...Well...DUH...sorry to bother you for something that was totally under my control. I've seen others commenting on the time thing, so I guess I'm not alone. Thanks
