As a user, you can set your own timezone. Go "User Profil" then "Edit Options", you'll see the timezones. Select the one you want and everything should be converted for you (as long as you are logged in).
It would be nice if the defaults could be set to Eastern time so that if somone doesn't change their profile, at least it's not too far off.
OK.. i frequent 2 other boards. one is on Eastern time, the other is on Pacific Time.. Those are easy to figure out ... am I the ONLY dingbat that looks at the posts and has a hard time figuring out who posted when, and whether or not they are on right now?? I am always scrolling down to look at the GMT !
Tim- can the time be posted at EST instead of GMT?
