The time in Gmt is Midnight on Saturday the 14th, and 5pm on the 14th. I have posted that I will gladly and happily translate the time of the Chat to local time for anyone who needs the help. You and I can calculate Gmt, but there are many that were more confused by my use of GMT than Eastern.

People should start learning and using GMT :) and maybe in the way start learning and using metric units of measurement too ;)

Sven,

The rest of the world might go to imperial - after the US goes imperial. Not likely though. If American industry cannot handle conversion to metric, there is no way they could handle conversion to imperial. :D :D :D

Its hard for a slow-brain like me to keep up with EST and ESST...If I had a comparison chart between GMT and EST I would use it.

Ah, but then so many out there would still be in the dark.

So if I croak here on Saturday, I will have croaked in Australia on Sunday?

Hmmmmm

So Bill on that logic living in Australia lengthens your life.

A good tool I use for time conversions is www.worldtimeserver.com.
