[Athen] Webinar with OUR OWN E.A. Draffin Nov. 3

[Prof Norm Coombs]

People looking forward to the Webinar next Tuesday were getting confused 
about times between England and the US.

Google tells me that today there is a 5-hour difference between New York 
Eastern Daylight and London GMT Standard time

So 2 Eastern is right now 6 London

BUT BUT BUT BUT BUT

The US changes from daylight to Standard this week end.

Next Tuesday there will again be a 5-hour difference instead of today's 4 
hours.
So next Tuesday 2 PM Eastern will be 7 PM GMT!!
