Modified Time:
Our next meeting will be at 12:30pm Eastern Daylight/9:30 Pacific Daylight/16:30 UTC on April 10th. For those in the UK/Europe, please double check your local time as we did have daylight savings time change in the USA -- and this always seems to trip us up a bit: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/meetingtime.html?iso=20120410&p2=419&p3=770.
