John Dirks Jr Posted August 3, 2007 Report Posted August 3, 2007 How do I fix the time zone for the clock on this forum? My display is 3 hours early.
hausdok Posted August 3, 2007 Report Posted August 3, 2007 Beats the hell out of me. Mine is displaying my time perfectly. Mike B.? OT - OF!!! M.
Michael Brown Posted August 3, 2007 Report Posted August 3, 2007 Forum is set to Pacific Time. The best place and time of course! [^] Michael Brown DevWave Software Inc.
Phillip Posted August 3, 2007 Report Posted August 3, 2007 This forum is the best place to be. The best time is Central time. If you where talking about the west cost being the best place to be I will have to disagree because the South is the place to be.[]
John Dirks Jr Posted August 3, 2007 Author Report Posted August 3, 2007 We have a little bit of everything here in Maryland so thats kind of nice. Most people dont think of Maryland as a southern state but we are south of the Mason Dixon Line which is our northern border to Pennsylvania and is considered the divider between the north and the south. Some of the fiercest fighting of the Civil War took place in Maryland. The Battle of Antietam was the bloodiest single day of battle in American history. I have walked the "sunken road" a few times. It is said the blood flowed like a river there. Great national history in Maryland. I am going tubing this Sunday down Antietam Creek. A litte about that battle; http://www.nps.gov/anti/ The Mason Dixon Line; http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news ... dixon.html If I had my choice I would be in one of the Carolinas.

chicago Posted August 3, 2007 Report Posted August 3, 2007 It would be nice if the heartland could see the real time. Sounds like something for the Gnomes to work on.
Michael Brown Posted August 4, 2007 Report Posted August 4, 2007 We can't set the time different for everyones computer but we can set it to the most common time zone. If someone wants to create a poll and vote on it, we can change it to the most popular area. Time Adjustment Settings? Enter either a positive or negative integer value between +12 and 0 and -12. This may come in handy if you are located in one part of the world, and your server is in another, and you need the time displayed in the forum to be converted to a local time for you! (Default value is 0, meaning no adjustment) Originally posted by chicago Sounds like something for the Gnomes to work on. About the Gnomes thing... isn't this the avatar you wanted Bob? I can put it up for you, if you like? [:-tong2] Just let me Gnome? We are always here to help! [^]
hausdok Posted August 4, 2007 Report Posted August 4, 2007 My eyes! My eyes! Jeez, Mike, where the hell did you find a picture of my first wife? I thought I'd burned them all! OT - OF!!! M.
Scottpat Posted August 4, 2007 Report Posted August 4, 2007 OK, I just had to see what time my post has. OK, it was 8:47 and I'm on Central so my real time is 10:47 AM. I never really noticed this before! As for the Mason Dixon line it actually went all the way up to Southern New Jersey! Now how many folks from the South consider MD, PA and NJ a Southern state! The war of Northern Aggression had many strange lines. Brothers fighting against brothers, etc.
Brian G Posted August 4, 2007 Report Posted August 4, 2007 I don't see how the time displayed really matters here. It's not like we're making phone calls and might wake each other up. You post when you post. [?] Brian G. Eastern...Central...No Wait, I Vote for Auto Zone [^]

John Dirks Jr Posted August 4, 2007 Author Report Posted August 4, 2007 Im pretty sure PA was north. Gettysburg PA was the main Union fort and it is just north of the Mason Dixon Line. According to the line Jersey is north too. Gettysburg is located right about where the word "Line" is on this map. Image Insert: 11.73 KB

Jack Ahern Posted August 14, 2007 Report Posted August 14, 2007 Can not remember seeing a "fort" in Gettysberg. A few walls-a stand of trees- piles of rocks-a few small hills-old town??? I guess I need to schedule another trip to the "High Water of the Confederacy". History tells us Northeners that July 1863 was the CSAs last chance to capture Lincoln's Washington.[:-banghea
