It is bang on. All my machines sync their clocks to UTC. Doesn't       everybody? Anyhow easy enough to convert. On my regular linux box;              $ TZ=PST8PDT date --date="2026-01-19T03:31:42,219647248+00:00"       2026-01-18T19:31:42,219647248-08:00              but then it screws up a proper sort ... not that it would matter any to me.        What REALLY matters is that nanosecond output is doable today and, perhaps       when I get my hands on a hardware clock that can resolve to a nanosecond,       accurate to a nanosecond. I'll need to upgrade all the networking hardware to       take advantage of it but by that time I'll probably want to do that anyhow.              I call it future compatibilty.              Дуже груви,        Maurice              -o -o o- o- -o -o -o -o o- -o o- -o        (\ (\ /) /) (\ (\ (\ (\ /) (\ /) (\        ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^       ...
