IMPORTANT!
I just went back to the site to post a message that this must be an April Fools joke,and the message didn't get sent. Instead, I got a text box saying "April Fools." Ha ha.
Never mind. Sorry.
As of midnight, 1 July 2014, set your clocks ahead to 12:09:21 because the Prime Meridian has been changed from Greenich to Paris. It'll be Paris Mean Time forward.
Who the hell had this bright idea?

Looks like some sort of April fools joke?
To be honest I would hope its true as the clock as in my car is only ever right for 6 months of the year currently. |  | | |
