The time is going to change, either the UTC reference > time or your local time. I understand that, but imho local jitter is better than global jitter. Just about everyone knows their offset from UTC, DST or no DST.

If I was given an UTC time then there would have been _no_ confusion. -- Benjamin Lewis Fedora Ambassador ben.lewis@xxxxxxxxxx ----------------------------------------------------------------------- http://benl.co.uk./ PGP Key: 0x647E480C "In cases of major discrepancy, it is always reality that got it wrong" -- RFC 1118
