[chapter-delegates] Tsunami Alert Network Meeting will start in 15 minutes

Tue Mar 29 11:48:00 PST 2005

The recent (last Saturday) daylight savings changes in europe, which will be
done in US next Sunday, made that during this week the time differences
between countries are a little different.

Our meeting is scheduled at 20:00 UTC  (see UTC coordinates here
http://www.dxing.com/utcgmt.htm )

The Indonesian chapter (who is still awake at 3 AM waiting for the event)
told us that.
For the next time I'll send the time in most of the cities of the world

The meeting will start in 15 minutes...
