I'm allways getting confused with this Central time GMT thing. Is there a site at which I can compare my local time to GMT time? Andre On Mon, 06 Sep 1999 20:13:52 +0200, Stephan Schulz >Hello, >first GP3 Screenshots from ETCS >http://grandprix3.com
The screenshots look fan-tas-tic !!! Hope the physics and all the rest are as good as the graphics! Is GP3 being programmed by Geoff Crammond again by the way? Does anyone know what he did since GP2?

Did a quick search and this site has a sort of "world clock" Java applet: http://tv.wwitv.com/livetv.htm I thought CET was GMT+1 at the moment, but it seems like +2!! I'll have to stay awake until 02:00 AM then.... :-( They better open that site or at least one guy is going to be MAD tonight <g> JoH

SRN said 12PM GMT, not 12AM.....that means Noon GMT, not midnight! Although they overlooked that too. :-) ________________________________________________ Jon Van Ginneken "Serious sport has nothing to do with fair play.

Well that explains why it still isn't up :) Andre On Tue, 07 Sep 1999 02:49:29 GMT, "Jon Van Ginneken"

At winter CET is GMT+1, but during summer, from April to September, there is something called daylight saving time, and we adjust every damned clock one hour forward. I don't know if this is an international thing or an European thing. Anyway, GMT is still GMT and doesn't get adjusted. So in Britain they don't have GMT during summer, but DST, and because of that CET is GMT+2 during summer. Confusing isn't it ? -- Olav K. Malmin remove spam when replying

We usually talk about BST which is British Summer Time. At least we haven't heard much about the split Britain time zones for a while.
