Ack. There is no denying your logic. ;) And here Heather even got in touch with me to double-check the time conversion, and I was, like, "Yeah, that's right...oh wait, no, it should be an hour earlier...oh! no wait, I'm wrong, it's, um...yeah, okay, that's right." I was so busy figuring out the numbers I forgot to look at the letters.

Okay, that's it. I have the solution. We all stay online for 24 hours nonstop so we don't miss anybody. And no fair sleeping.
For those of us who can't do this (stay online for the next 24 hours) :), what time is the conference: 3:30 GMT or 11:30 EST? Actually what I really want to know is whether it is at 11:30 Minneapolis time or 10:30 Minneapolis time (just in case you have problems converting from Minneapolis to Rochester time zones).
