Should be UTC instead of GMT.
They're technically the same anyway, only the name is different.
Also, I hate the name UTC, simply because the order of the letters of the acronym don't match up with the first letters of the words of which the acronym stands for, which is Coordinated Universal Time, and not Universal Time Coordinated like I always thought.
Huh, I always thought it was French, but Wikipedia says UTC was a compromise intentionally neither French nor English. Politics is weird
Nope, in French it would TUC: Temps Universel Coordonné
That actually sounds like a cracker.
What does GMT stand for?
Greenwich Mean Time (because everything revolved around the British Empire)
That is indeed mean.
Thank goodness it's not Greenwich Monstrous Time.
Zulu. It's shorter and cooler
But I have to learn how to make those clicking noises first.
