OM, this is almost a carbon copy of the same bitch you put out on this
reflector over a year ago in a post dated Saturday May 3, 2003 02:01:59
(which btw is listed as "EDT"). I don't really care what time it is in
Indiana, cause I don't ever plan on going there. If you don't like the fact
that other parts of the country observe different time standards, I suggest
you complain to someone higher up the food chain than the net controls of
the TT net. The reason I listed the times in both zulu and regular times is
because apparently you are smart enough to realize that some people have
trouble doing the conversions themselves. If you have any further questions
or comments on this subject, I don't care to hear them!!
