Dan were you aware that the time on the website is an hour off from real time.
He's just getting prep'd for daylight savings time next fall.

Brian-
You can go into Look & Layout preferences under your Profile and you can add 1 hour to the current system time if you want it to be current. Of course, once Dan updates the system time, you will be 1 hour ahead at that point, so technically you will be making all of your posts from the future :D...
Naw... time set has to be done individually. I don't control the forum time because I have users visiting from all over the US, from Mexico, Europe and Australasia. I would mess up people - as you point out - who have fixed their time.
If you are in Michigan/Eastern time zone, set your Time Offset to 1 in your Profile | Look & Layout Preferences, or click the autodetect link.
Then click the save button at the bottom. When you refresh the forum, your time will be correct. Should stay that way.
I'm still doing a tiny bit of tweaking, but other than maybe a few people having to log in again... maybe... the major issues should be over. Well, I still have to check the new posts link, but that was working for me in 3 locations yesterday so that should be working itself out.
I like the idea of posting from the future though...??? I wonder if I go to the MI lottery web site with my clock set ahead one hour...?
Forgot one thing - I haven't installed new spelling support yet. I have to read up on it and do some testing, but it is supposed to fix some of the previous spelling issues. I'm shooting for Sunday to install if I don't see any problems with it.
Still working on the spellchecker issue.
