What i mean is that instead of subtract 4 it sum 4 to the GMT ... Do
you see the diferences?
I think this is ilogical or am i doing something wrong?
GMT-4 is, I believe, the NAME of a time zone. I have no idea how the
name was arrived at but it has nothing to do with subtracting 4 from GMT
to get local time.
I think what you really want for your timeline is "US/Eastern". That
will give you minus 4 while daylight savings time is in effect a nd
minus 5 when we return to standard time.
