[NTLK] Fwd: NewtonTalk Digest, Vol 76, Issue 24

[Pawel Piotrowski]

Hi Guys,

UTC is NOT GMT.

UTC is a time standard. GMT is time zone.

For example, I live in UK. During winter GMT is UTC for me (16:00 UTC is 16:00 for me), but during summer GMT is +1 to UTC for me (16:00 UTC is 17:00 for me).

More here: https://www.timeanddate.com/time/gmt-utc-time.html <https://www.timeanddate.com/time/gmt-utc-time.html>

So, please check again your time zone here: https://www.worldtimebuddy.com <https://www.worldtimebuddy.com/>



Cheers,
Pawel

>>> Go to the link, scroll down (or zoom in if you are using a less vintage machine) to the part that says DAY 1 SESSION LINK and DAY 2 SESSION LINK. Click on those and you will be prompted to use/install Zoom. Unfortunately Zoom for Newton or Mac OS 9 has not been released yet, so you will have to use a fairly recent machine or phone. The phone or tablet experience will likely require you download the app.
