I'm getting really worried about global time zones on a local scale, not
only does it seem that some parts of Australia are 24 hours plus 9 ahead of
GMT but now it seems that it's also Wednesday in Wallasey too, whereas here
I swear it's still Tuesday.
Does anyone know Fred Hoyle's sci-fi fantasy 'October the 15th is too late'?
Perhaps it's happeming now. Help, I'm drowning in the timestreams!
Best (wink)
