I type GMT but say ZULU, its a military thing.

Actually that question is from a cyberpunk movie... Strange days

it is a few days before new years eve 1999, and a radio talk show host gets a call from a religious zealot talking about the rapture happening at the stroke of midnight. So being in Los Angeles he asks if that is Pacific standard time

I just wish I was that quick on my feet when dealing with fervent believers in ideas. (I appreciate believing something strongly, but generally the wackier the idea the wackier the believers).

gotta say though... looking through your links and such, when an Accountant gets all holy roller on your ass you gotta stand up and take notice. Accountants are some of the most boring people ever. for them to do something interesting is unbelievable in itself
