I was looking for this Member's profile the other day, what puzzles me under the Search window is -
in AM the Normal view showed Last Activity: Today
in PM the Normal view showed Last Activity: Yesterday
Just Curious,
[SIDEBAR: No, I was not stalking him, I wouldn't do that, I would just Clobber him with my Club in the Cave and haul him home silently in the night...LOL]

Today = last 24 hours
Yesterday = 24-48 hours
We know this isn't totally accurate and is on our list to fix.

The rest is via Florida time, right?
Yesterday = 24-48 hours
Ahhh...my kind of "time"

Thanks Matchdoctor -- for awhile I thought the Magic Clock starts at Midnight in Florida (EST) which is your Home Base....
Sunny, FOR YOU it's probably Miller Time ALL the time!! 24-48, 48-72, 72 to Infinity

Matchdoctor,
this is only a Question out of Curiosity -- not "Urgent"
I NOTICED on one thread the time-stamped on my Postings were in the late PM and after Midnight in the AM (which I don't do because I am asleep in California)
but if your "Default Clock" starts at GREENWICH Mean Time, which is +8 hours ahead of PST, then I CAN "understand" why I am SO TIRED in the mornings (because in your Virtual World I've been typing while posting...)

Artemis, when you noticed this, I don't suppose you happened to be in a frame of reference that was moving close to the speed of light with respect to the inertial frame centered on the surface of the Earth?
Relativistic time dilation could easily explain the weirdness you saw.
