No. :) They're 7 hours behind UTC, so 0000 UTC is 1700 (5 pm) in Portland. > > Aussies would be ok for an early meeting. > The Aussies, of course, are a double-whammy because not only do they > have their night and days messed up, They seem to not be the only ones :) > So the moral of the story is . . . . well, I forgot what I was talking > about, but I'm sure I left a point around somewhere. :) No matter which time we choose, someone's screwed.
