GMT -4 hours due to Daylight Savings Time...But who are we kidding...We're not saving any daylight, there's the same amount of light and dark whether we move the clock ahead or back...it's the position of the earth relative to the sun that gives us the hours of daylight and nighttime...I say keep the time at one setting year round.

Don't repeat that too loud or you'd get excommunicated... Imagine the sun spinning around earth from ~160 million km distance in 24 hours, meaning it would move at ~503 million km in a day, nearly 21 million km in an hour or to the moon and back in less then 2 minutes. That's all of course if Pi is not illegally different from 3.14 http://galileowaswrong.com/galileowaswrong/Flyer_for_Conference_3.pdf Yes, recently I was marked as a flat earther, so beware! --//-- edit: corrected link... seems Google put the censor-lock on.
