What makes beats fall down is that they apparantly set 000 to 00:00 zurich time, that's silly, greenwich (GMT) has been zero for centuries and to make zurich the center of the world is daft IMHO.
Apart from that on a global medium like IRC it IS handy to arrange meetings using a universal timescale, and I like the concept of making it decimal myself.perhaps, but I agree that scripts will do, although you have a more universal acceptance if you make a mIRC version, and seeing they probably trademarketed the time based on zurich khaled could make a mBEAT based on GMT perhaps :]
it's amusing to see how many peopleon IRC think their local time is universal and the same everywhere BTW .
