Yes, there ARE a few stupid questions! ;) Could someone please tell me what GMT means in terms of the time that is set for the site?

Green Mean Time?
Global Mountain Time?
Green Mountain Time?

GMT is Greenwich Mean Time, the time zone I and the rest of Britain lives in :)

Grenich Mean Time, where the human clock is set. The problem on this site is there is no way to compare GMT with your own time to figure out how you want your clock set. Any moderators listening? Seems like it wouldn't be a difficult feature to insert in the setting up your profile section. There's just no clue, right now. ;)

I'm listening!

I don't know how to insert it into the site, but I can offer this:

Which might help!

Google comes up with lots of things if you search for 'world time zone' but a lot are confusing or complicated :?

THANKS!! Now I feel enlightened!! :D So, since I am in the eastern U.S., I am 5 hours behind GMT -- is that right? My times are coming up accurately, but I'm just curious if this is how it was figured out.

i think that when you start here, Steph had the clock automatically set to Eastern Time (GMT-5) so then a member would just have to change it based on the difference from your time to Eastern Time

obviously not helpful to our international member, however, since the majority belong to the US, it should work well enough

7am EST
6am CST
5am MT
4am PST
3am Alaska
2am Hawaii
