I do believe that this site gives the time relative to EDT. Tonight, we "fall back" an hour overnight to EST, and so there is an EXTRA HOUR to party like it's 1999!

You lose an hour when you "spring forward" in April. You gain an hour when you "fall back" in October.

Harlan Smith, in one of our conversations, expressed his delight in being alive to witness an event as rare as a millennium change. Whatever's coming, I'd like all of us to try to make up for the delight Harlan didn't quite live to enjoy.
