Board Clock

The minutes reading is now correct for the first time in months, but the hour reading is three hours slow. It is now 9:56 AM CDT, and my User CP is set for GMT minus 6 hours and to automatically detect daylight saving time. The PERB clock reads 6:56 AM.

I think the server must be located in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.

The correct time for PST shows on my {& others'} posts when i set it
for -4 Atlantic, even though i am in Vancouver.

Exactly! And I could correct it by changing my setting to GMT - 3 hours, but why can't they correct the server? I'm not in Brazil, Guyana or Argentina.

I suppose they could, but this site is low fees, low maintenance...

If you set the clock to the Eastern Time Zone, then the clock reads correctly. How long that will last is the real mystery.
