Thanks, it's good to know there are dictionaries out there with incorrect definitions. That one is terrible and unhelpful. > Urumqi 's localtime is beijin time ,it is decided by law . > Urumqi 's timezone is east 6 ,it is decided by geography. Please use the standard definition of “time zone”, otherwise your terminology is only got to confuse the conversation. > There is only one localtime in all over the chian,beijin time,but > there are 5 timezone time in china . This just doesn't match the truth of standard time zones. You are free to think differently, but you will need to find a non-standard time zone database that agrees with you. > you are totally wrong ,not me . You're free to keep on with that belief, but I'll only be providing information based on standard time zone definitions. If you choose to deviate from that, you're on your own. -- \ “The fundamental principle of science, the definition almost, | `\ is this: the sole test of the validity of any idea is | _o__) experiment.” —Richard P.
