How do you explain the seven hour difference? Seven hours is almost a third of the way around the planet. Now, I know Poland isn't all that much east of the Greenwich meridian -- I make it out as two timezones (hours) to the east. Throw in the daylight/standard time bit, and you might be able to explain a three (or one) hour discrepancy, but not seven. Or has there been a lot of continental drift in your parts lately? Another question: Have you just gone through the transition from daylight to standard time? That has screwed me up a few times. -- cmg
