Well, yeah. But I'm a pilot and we always use UTC. My systems are set to
UTC. A lot of the timezones are symlinked to Etc/UTC and it's listed as
"canonical", so perhaps we're both right. Nyaah! Thppppt! :-p

Odd, too, since WinNT (the archetype for Windows 7/8/10) was essentially
written by the same blokes who wrote VAX/VMS for DEC and (IIRC) VAX/VMS
preferred GMT for clocks. It's been a LONG time since I futzed with it
but that's what I recall. I could be wrong (and probably am).
