I can see why SL operates on Pacific Time, because that's where LL lives. So why are the blue notices I receive invariably timed off GMT? Let's have one or the other so I don't get confused all the time.

Simple answer = Sloppy programming

They didn't bother to convert the server's real time which is GMT to SL time in the notices.

Hi Lola.

Perhaps you will find interesting this (very veteran) JIRA: Redefine SL system time as UTC/GMT instead of PST-PDT California time

Thanks Irene. As you point out in the JIRA a request to make UTC/GMT the standard is three years old and the obvious time to change it is March 13 when North America (or most of it) goes to daylight time. Let's have everybody rally around and vote for it and maybe the new CEO will see it. (Well, perhaps maybe.)
