;D

Now look......

I'm typing this at 13.51 (and a bit) Zulu just south east of London, England.

The server time at the top of the forum panel is 8:51 am

Now in my book that's 5 hours time difference. Unless someone thinks different... ;)

The Zulu (Z) time difference between London and New York is 5 hours. If both time zones are on Summer time, the local time difference is still 5 hours. However, New York starts to observe Summer Time (EST) 3 weeks later than the UK(BST) Therefore, during that period in the spring there's only 4 hrs difference between New York's Eastern Daylite Time (EDT) and London's British Summer Time (BST) :P
