| 361611 | 2005-06-07 09:16:00 | It's the server clock, not Vbulletin. Been this way for ages. I have mentioned it, cross my heart I have, but when you wander into the over-worked, under-paid world of IT and say that users on PressF1 are complaining that the clock is off by 7 minutes ...... .... well, let's just say the response is, ah, colourful. |

| 361612 | 2005-06-07 09:26:00 | Well . . . if NZ is a little FASTER in sidereal timekeeping, then I suggest the reason is that it is slowly moving EAST, toward the US! :thumbs: Hey!!! What's with that? HUH? def: SIDEREAL>>The orbital period is the time it takes a planet (or another object) to make one full orbit . In fact we at PF1 are 7 minutes into your future Joe . Or 7 mins in front of your Earth if you like . Not a lot but hey, its enough . The big plan was to hack into your electoral ballot computers and get Michael Moore elected instead of the big W . Unfortunately Metla and Chill got sidetracked by a clever Japanese puzzle and let George through by accident . :confused: Sorry about that . :D |

I wonder if its like FC3 installation, where a few updates down the track and it cant talk to the interweb time server anymore? I was as concerned about the clock being out about as much as the overworked, underpaid .... ... but that might be it! :2cents: |

| 361618 | 2005-06-08 05:37:00 | It's even simpler: That big earthquake on December 26 was a really big one. (The earth is still "ringing"). Noone's where they were on December 25. | Graham L (2) | ||
