[Mb-hair] Time Zones

[Martin Eayrs]

Having drunk deeply from a particularly pleasing Chardonnay this 
evening I was a little confused by the fact that on the MB-Hair 
website (where I sometimes read mails as I am in Digest mode and 
otherwise have to wait) my postings, set to appear in so-called 
chronological order, were appearing before those I was replying too.

Too much wine, I thought, especially when Dagmar's last post replying 
to mine also appeared before Michael's which I had originally replied 
to. (Some of you may by now still be with me, or struggling, but hang 
on in )

Then through the haze of white wine came the realisation - time 
zones. Having set the web page to list postings by date, the software 
does just that, taking its information from the message headings as 
posted.

So, slightly disappointed, I deduce that Dagmar, like me, is this 
side of the Great Divide. And that we can use this rough instruemnt 
to see just where list members are at any given moment.

As I return to my Chardonnay, i thought I would share this with you. 
For what it is worth.
