I know that is difficult for us 'muricans to think in European (ie. wrong) terms, but I guess in the backwards notation of the furiners, it is now 09:10 11/12/13, I think. (Eastern 'Murica time).

P.S. Damn it took a while to compose this post.

An idea whose time has come. I had my wife take my picture in front of the TV when the Weather Channel clock read 01:23:45 on 6/7/89. And then updated it a year later on 7/8/90.

Some people just think of stuff like that it would appear. At least two of us, anyway. 🙂
