    Our clocks go forward this Saturday night, and I don’t think yours change yet, so we have to be careful about the time difference…

    You go forward closer to our time, so difference is smaller. We change after couple of weeks.

    Doesn’t the UTC stay always the same, so the best reference point among variety of different DSTs. I so hope EU would do the decent thing and get rid of the habit, we have at least made an effort.

    They've been trying here, too, and just started trying again:

    To make things even more confusing, some states here have two time zones in the same state...

    So on March 12, because our clocks will have changed, UTC 1800 will be 1300 our time, instead of 1200 when last we Zoomed...

    Zooming in

    Sounds like a plan.

    ...Therefore I think it will be 11:00 in California, which should be easy for me. 10AM would also be easy, so I'll triple check after the time change to make sure I'm not on Mars time zone. In other words... yes I would love to join you! (I only just noticed activity here on the thread moments ago, please forgive my late reply.)
    Too many watches, not enough wrists.

    The irony. We're on a forum about timepieces that tell time and I don't know what the time is.
