Geek Approved Hardware

I use a lot of stuff. This is what works. Simple as that. Links are to Amazon...

Drupal 6.4 date rendering... ignores timezones.

Maybe it's me. Maybe I've done something wrong in the install of Drupal. It just never seems to honor the timezone setting when rendering dates.

Maybe its just a problem with ScribeFire? Who knows.
