Yep, like this AussieMonk :-)

I suffer from the curse of the half-hour offset timezone. I'm currently dawdling along in the 4th dimension at +10.5 hours from GMT.

It's not just my American brethren that get this wrong though. I have equipment that was made here in Australia only a couple of thousand kilometers away (Sydney) and they are too shortsighted to put in a timezone that works in the next state.

I beleive there is a little country somewhere that has an offset that has a 45 minute component. That's rough.

At any rate, even with the time at the top showing localtime (well, close) I still think a time elapsed is a useful thing.

    Yep, Nepal is 5 hours, 45 minutes ahead of GMT. Just to be different, I guess? :) TMTOWTDI.
