Is that the time zone on Earth or on Mars? :-) There was discussion
recently on getting uncorrected UTC time which concluded that it was
much easier on unix than on Windows, in practice I usually delegate as
much as possible to a backend database.
Yes Earth Time Zone. No database in this app. I need to know the time
on earth to calculate time on Mars. Sorry about the slow resoponse, I
am at a star party.
