anybody interested in doing or using a hack that converts the time to swatch internet time.

giving international boards a time system that works through time zones.

Swatch Internet Time is a big failure, more people will understand if you'll use CST/PST/GMT/whatever

it's probably a big failure because people go around saying
Swatch Internet Time is a big failure
if more people used it (maybe even along with their time zone) then it wouldnt be such a failure

i love it when people wink after being utterly unhelpful

No, it's a big failure because I'll have to use a calculator (or buy a Swatch watch, but I'll never do that wink (it's 09:43:40pm CST, I think)
