 		Moronic question on timezone
I live in New Hampshire, and I'm so ignorant that I don't know what time zone I'm in. Can someone enlighten me and tell me how that translates to PDT? I would greatly appreciate it.

I'm reasonably certain that would be Eastern time, which is three hours ahead of Pacific time. So, for example, 9:00 a.m. PDT (Pacific Daylight Time) would be noon where you are.

 		As a fellow New Hampshirite, I can confirm this. I have gotten very familiar, over the years, with the fact that California is three hours behind us and Great Britain is four or five hours ahead of us, thanks to my interactions online with people who live in those areas.

Question Great Britain is always five hours ahead. We observe summer time at the same time as the US. (Unless I am really out of the loop.)
While you are only four hours behind GMT, GB is observing BST right now.[/i]

 		There is like, a week or so where all of the U.S. (except maybe Indiana) shift, so that the UK is 7 hours ahead of Chicago, for instance, instead of 6.

And then it all shifts again back to 'normal.'

Doesn't the border for Greenwich Mean Time cut through Greenwich, thus the name? I was under the impression that GB west of Greenwich was in one time zone and GB east of Greenwich was in another...apologies if I'm mistaken.
