The Forum Time is Set Wrong

The server time IS incorrect for a very good reason... If I remember correctly, John D has a great MANY servers and daily maintenance is performed on those servers by automated processes... most of these processes are defaulted to occur at the change of day or 00:00 and this would cause all of his servers to be OFF LINE at the same time... Not good for his business... so the clocks on the servers are staggered...

If I got anything wrong I am sure the great one (John D) will jump in and make appropriate corrections when his alarm clock goes off... I know he has to get up early because of his LONG commute... about 60 seconds from his front door to the door where his servers and business are located...
