Hi John,

Sometimes we see schedules that give both zulu time the local time zone information. A few of us can determine our own time from either or both and would notice if they don't match. If you haven't had a reason to use time zone conversions you would probably not get an easy comfort using zulu time - aka Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) - aka Coordinated Universal Time (CUT). Then there is local time that gives us the time according the sun position and varies more or less uniformly around the world. My own local time is about 34 minutes later than Eastern Standard Time. Do you have a headache yet?

Zulu time would be 0000-0200 during CDT and 0100-0300 CST. I'd probably
screw that up as well (hi). On the other hand, those NOT in the central
time zone might prefer Zulu time. Maybe I'll try that and see how many
times I get it wrong in the coming year. If nothing else, it would be
good practice for me.
