That formula will give you the time in GMT.
To convert it to PST you will need to account for the hours offset (see below). 
 I believe the offset for you is 8 hours (Greenich Mean Time is 8 hours ahead 
of you so you need to subtract).  Im in EST and I believe I have to offset it 
by 5 hours.  I put the "8" in the formula below with {} around it.  I am not 
sure if that is the right offset for you from GMT.


SELECT TO_CHAR(TO_DATE('01/01/1970 00:00:00', 'MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI:SS') +
(C3 / ( 60 * 60 * 24 ) - ( 60 * 60 * {8} ),
'MM/DD/YY HH24:MI:SS')
FROM T40;
