Want zulu? If you know how to get it already, you'll want to skip the rest of this.
Simply add the following number of hours to your local time zone to get zulu: Atlantic +4 hrs Eastern +5 hrs Central +6 hrs Mountain +7 hrs Pacific +8 hrs For calculating zulu in all other time zones worldwide, feel free to download the chart from my Web site at http://www.realtime.net/~magbo/wrldtim.gif In the summer in North America, subtract an hour if your area observes daylight savings time (i.e., Central becomes +5). Daylight savings time is not observed in parts of Indiana or in Arizona, so keep that in mind and yeah, it does get a little confusing but if you live there you already know that. Sorry international members, haven't got the foggiest about daylight or non-daylight time conventions outside North America. If for some reason you don't like to download stuff from Web sites, write me back and I will send the chart to you as an e-mail attachment. It's not big (20K .gif, so it shouldn't clog your in box) and is very handy. Just in case it is not readily apparent that big honker of a red line in the middle of the chart labeled Greenwich Meridian is zulu herself. <grin> regards, Steve ----------------------------------- Steve Greenhow Austin, Texas USA email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.realtime.net/~magbo/ (nom de plume "Downwind Jaxon") ----------------------------------- __________________________________________________________________________ ______ To unsubscribe from this list please send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] _____________________________________________________________ Check out the new and improved Topica site! http://www.topica.com/t/13
