Message-ID: <20030312040409.23338.qmail@operamail.com> (raw)

I think you are looking at the GMT concept wrongly. If we assume GMT as '0' (zero). Then if the sun dawns on central europe 1 hr after it dawns on Greenwitch it is considered as - (minus). If sun dawns on a region before it dawns on Greenwitch it is considered + (plus)

eg. Sun dawns on India 5:30 hrs before it dawans on Greenwitch so Indian time in GMT format will be GMT + 5:30

Cheers,
AMOD.
