Good idea, John That will drive JJ absolutely insane to see how off his fake Sub is. He'll be re-setting the thing ten times a day


BTW, I've been using this onehttp://www.time.gov/timezone.cgi?Eastern/d/-5/java

I use the same one at home. But for some reason, my offiice firewall will not allow the java script for this site through. So I often use this one which Johnny turned me on to:

Craig's is spot-on. The TT Blue Sub posted by Pete seems to be Made in China!!

Nothing fancy, but it does the job.

Mke sure your time zone is set correctly in the USERCP. When logged out, the server resides in CA, USA .... so you will see Pacific Time.

Really? I heard those Chinese knockoffs were hit and miss. Any truth to that?

Did that comment land me on the tossers list by chance?

When the boss decides to join the underlings in all this kinda talk, what can I say?

Question is: Do you really want to be in that list and be even remotely associated with those genuine tossers?

I've been laughing so much reading this. I just wanted to say out loud how much I enjoy you guys. I guess it's not really out loud. I mean, I guess I could say it out loud, but I haven't, so to pretend I had would be dishonest. Anyway I guess I wanted to express my appreciation. Yes, something like that. Ahem.

I could put a JAVA clock on this website, but have no way to integrate the VB database with timezones to make the correct time display for all timezones.

If we all lived in one timezone...it could be done.

Don't bother, Mark. Unless it's got a millisecond display, the only one who will be traumatized is JJ. If it only has hours and minutes it will drive him crazy trying to set his copy watches to the second. In fact, leave the current clock and drive him nuts.

Mark, the simple answer is to set the clock to Grenwich Mean Time and we can figure out the rest.

But no seconds hand... let JJ go insane trying to guess how to set his chinese fakes accurately.
