Does anybody really know what time it is?

I expected it to be in UTC time, but it showed up in EST since I'm in EST.  Pretty neat.

I noticed you could make it a screensaver in the lower right hand corner, and I might do it.  I've found a few sites that show GMT/UTC/Zulu time that could be screensavers but I never was any good at quickly converting the time in my head.  Even when I did my flight training of course all the times are in UTC time and I had to buy a watch that showed UTC in digital and have the hands show the EST in order to report to flight control the correct time.  Oh well, it worked.
