    What's up with the clock on this website? Is the server somewhere in Europe (one time zone plus a fraction East of GMT)?

    TET (Tsunami Epicenter Time), IIRC. Only Nathan knows and he's not telling.

    The Degreeinfo clock is NOT a time mill!

    Despite wild opinions that there's something odd about the clock, I can assert out of my observation of the chronographic process of many other clocks that this clock clocks as well as any clock that matches time zone time. Besides, time zone time is purely voluntary and clocks which are not time-zone concordant are just as much clocks as any other clocks. And if non-time-zone time is legally clockable in the state where the server is located, then it doesn't take a mindreader to know that degreeinfo time is legal, and jackbooted elitest (sic) time-zone thugs can't change that.

    I'll have you all know that our clock is fully accredited by the National Association of Private, Non-Traditional Website Timekeeping Devices, based in Honolulu, Hawaii.

    Their application for official recognition is pending in Switzerland as this is written. :D

    Careful, Bruce, you can't outrun the truth squad.

    "All times are GMT. The time now is 02:38 AM."

    This was the stated time at 12:24 pm PDT. The GMT time should read 19:24 or 7:24 PM.

    The time and date have been wrong for years.

    One thing that some members on this forum seem to conveniently forget is that it is not illegal to have the clock set to fit the unique needs of the adult learner. It is not misleading to any potential employee nor fraudulent. We can be proud of our incorrect time because we worked just as hard for it as that football player did for his fully accredited correct time. The incorrect time here satifies the need for a sorta chronological order so it is just as valid.

    This is exactly why accreditation DOES NOT WORK and should be banned from all clock factories! At lease an unaccredited clock is correct twice a day. Morgan.. Russ.. help me here. I've got them backed into a corner. None of Janko's fancy-talk can pull them out of this mess.

    After much thought (cough, cough, mutter) I'd like to correct my earlier statement. It clearly has nothing to do with Switzerland (C'mon Bruce, that old Masons/Templars/Illuminatti ruse again?) It clearly is related to the chronosynclastic infundibulum.
