Fix your computer clock, John. Ask your toaster to explain how.


My clock's right! I'll check the time on this message.


In my list, it says 11:56 AM. I thought you were in the Eastern time
zone.


On my list it showed as 10:56, but, strangely, your reply showed on
my
list
as 9:59.

Weird!

Check your clock.


John, I don't have time for this silliness. In English, no
abbreviations,
what time zone do you want your clock (and messages) to display?
Greenwich
Mean Time, or some other zone?


My clock displays Eastern Standard Time as adjusted for daylight
savings.


OK. It is 11:25 AM, give or take a couple of minutes. Your message says it
was posted 12:30 PM. We're all done here.

Just out of curiosity, what does your computer clock say?

11:45 AM Eastern time, adjusted for DST and wind direction.

Well, there's the problem right there.

Wrong wind direction.

I've had a lot of hook accidents including picking a monster with more

with a mirror. (That client never went with me again, I'll tell you
what.)

I've got to believe that the double thumb hook up is a tall tale - as
in urban legend or something.

I second Doug's scalpel trick, but mostly when I seriously hook
myself, as I do at least two/three times a year, I just cut one end or
the other off and pull it through. That's where a handy little can of
numbing spray can help a lot. :)

Ice works well also. But, burying your head in same may not be too
comfortable!

Nope, looks good. I don't need GMT.

Weird. On my list the time showed up as 10:45 for that last message of
yours. Harry's earlier message showed up with an hour difference also. It
must be an ISP thing, 'cause the problem isn't consistent.

Well, at least we're making progress. Remember this always, John: I never
lie, and I'm always right.

This may be a different problem - like maybe the ISP.

Mine are all coming through synched to my clock.

Did you set your GMT/EDT time right in Agent? You are using an early
version - that might be the problem.

I manually set my computer ahead an hour last month because of the new
daylight savings date.
When the old date arrived last week, my computer jumped ahead another hour
as it has for the last number of years.
No one told it about the 'new' dates. I noticed it right away and had to
set it's clock back an hour.
I am on ADT
