On my way to Cartagena, CO, on he plane, occasionally, I had a look at the map of Antarctica, the research stations and the timezones used "over there" :-) It turns out that there are 3 different approaches in use: - same as "at home" - something close to the timezone based on location (= other than the pole) - same as the port of departure from <$whereever> to the station on A. :-) but UTC may help in all of these cases.... Wilfried. PS: I was even considering to take our 3rd one with me to ICANN @ Cartagena, would have been fun, as I've got 24x7 network access in the hotel, for about a week :-)
