Did a search for this and didn't find anything.

I think the forum time is off by an hour, possibly because of Daylight Savings Time adjustments. I definitely have my User CP set on the correct time zone. Could one of the mods look into it?
 
Mine says today at 04:12 am and it's 12:16 EST for me now.

Edit: Weird I had it set correctly before the switch I wonder why it changed,
 
Wow, that's bizarre. Maybe I switched something else, but now the time is correct but the Time Zone is mentioned wrong at the bottom. For instance, I'm Eastern Time, which is GMT -5. That's what my CP is set to. At the bottom it says:

All times are GMT -4. The time now is 12:17 AM.

Strange... time is correct now, while that GMT reading is wrong. I can live with that, though, as long as the time is correct. Thanks anyway.

Huh. Heh, guess you learn something new every day. I've been looking at it as we gain one hour in the fall and lose it in the spring, when really it's in reverse. There ya go then!

Just remember: Spring forward and fall back. I always imagine myself jumping forward in the spring and falling on my butt during wintertime so it's an easy mental pneumonic.
