Posted May 7, 2006 Why did I book that doctor's appointment for half five on Tuesday? What was I thinking? Hopefully I'll be able to find somewhere broadcasting it live as soon as it finishes, and I can watch it as if it were live... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 7, 2006 yellow means "zone of equal hour related to GMT", pink means "zone of unequal hour related to GMT", Orange means "split hours" (eg GMT+ 5.30) and i think Green means "individual local time" So pink is GMT+/- and odd number Yellow is GMT+/- an even number Orange is GMT+/- a half hour Green is their own time zone all year round??? (i think) I think you'll find it starts at 9:30 AM PST, which is 6:30 PM GMT. Nope, The States Pacific Coast is in PDT now (or Pacific Daylight Time) and we are in BST (British Summer time) or IST (Irish summer time where i am). So this means they are still 8 hours behind us, not 9 like they were ONLY for a few days, because Europe and the US implement Daylight Savings Time at a slightly diferent time. (i think there is only a few days between it) So 9.30am PDT = 5.30pm BST PDT = GMT - 7hours BST = GMT + 1 hour Add them together...... -7 + 8 = +1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
