If you'd like, you can translate LQST into local time by going to "My LQ", then "Edit Options"

Where is "My LQ" I typed LQST (is ST standard time) into Google and nothing of any sense is listed.

Heh. It's only a matter of time before LQST becomes recognized worldwide. More seriously, while reading this thread or any other, just use your browser's 'Find in this page' function, and look for the string "My LQ"

Might take longer than you think JW. Note that everyone here is still talking GMT and it's officially been UST for some years
