It is at the bottom of the opening page and says ...

Download your Buchan-Meteo festive greeting card here (exe file 736k).

As Lawrence has accessed it already, and I just pasted the above text
from there , I suspect it may be there (;

I do not see this statement. The last line on your home page that I can see

By the way, the time on your webcam is about one hour fast.

Seasonal greetings, not criticism, intended.

Best regards, Roger



And taken in good spirits you may be assured (:

It may be that your cache is not updating ... access the page and then
click the refresh button may help (as your post is via OE I am assuming
you browse with IE).

My webcam is on European time, as is my web server, situated as it is in
Germany (the server not the cam lol). So yes, it is an hour adrift from
my local time.

Is that why your post sent at 18.56 GMT appeared here in Brussels at 19.56
CET but timed at 18.56 CET ?

The computer I am using to access my news is on UK time so it was posted
at 18:56 local, it then went via the mail server in Germany, to the
individual.net news server (also in Germany I believe) and from there,
via whatever route, to you (I could look the route up but I am making
dinner atm).

My webcam is connected to intranet file server ... that is on CET.

"Why of course the people don't want war. But after all, it is the
leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it is always a
simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or
a fascist dictatorship, Voice or no voice, the people can always be
brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to
do is to tell them that they are being attacked, and denounce the
pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger."

Hitler's designated successor

Gianna's Date header says:

That implies that the computer from which she posted it is set to
European time. It can't be the news server, as it's the same one (NIN)
that I use.


This computer is, I assure you, set to GMT (currently 19:47).

The server through which my outgoing posts are sent (not the news
server, the smtp server) is as stated in Germany. So the header implies
that the server stamps the time on the message, as indeed it should do.

It doesn't worry me but I was puzzled as to why it was happening.

I view NG posts in chronological order of arrival with the most recent at
the top of the list. Yours appear systematically part way down the list on
arrival instead of at the top.
