Okay-Im constantly getting confused about the time. I'd like to know when the majority of you are on and that means knowing what the time is over there.
Okay-right now in Australia its 6:10pm. What time is it in America? the UK? or Whatever other country you live in. Please post your country and time so I can make references to this thread so I will be able to know what time it is over there (wherever there is).

Thanks.

Well, not everyone in America is on the same time. There's Pacific Time, which is the west coast. Then there are different time zones, like Mountain Time and Central Time.

Oh. My. God. We lost the East Coast, Alaska, and Hawaii!

(While were on the subject, I lost my marbles.)

Actually, America has many timezones.

All the standard times from East to West.

Eastern Standard Time (EST), Central Standard Time (CST), Mountain Standard Time (MST), Pacific Standard Time (PST), Alaskan Standard Time (AKST), and Hawaii-Aleutian Standard Time (AHST or HST in Hawaii).

This is a neat website that tells about all the intracies of the US timezones. You will notice that some states are in one timezone during one season, but then switch during another.

UK, UK, UK!

OK, not quite the same ring, but we have GMT! Woot!

On another note, I see your pesky US scientists are trying to change GMT so that it conforms to the clocks; this means we'll lose minutes here and there, and eventually end up with midday at midnight.
