Do While On-line Events participants are from all over the world. To facilitate coordination, start time for events are listed as Greenwich Mean Time and our local Boston, MA, Eastern Standard Time(EST). We have learned from experience that synchronizing watches for an event can be difficult especially due to regional daylight savings time schedules. The clocks at the bottom of the screen are based on your computer's time, so it must be set right to work correctly. Check that the local time is ok. The Greenwich Mean Time must agree with the US Navy which broadcasts the GMT over the internet. Hopefully, both of these are correct (to within a few minutes). If not then the time and the time zone on the computer must be set correctly. Search for the appropriate control panel on your computer.
