anything about it?)

Well, it would take a little over 120 years for this difference to affect an org time stamp (given resolution to the minute as used by org)...

I love what I'm learning about time zones etc. in this discussion thread!

Then I can recommend Carlo Rovelli's The Order of Time.

All the best,
