Time zones.<br />
The times in the various time<br />
zones are based on UTC (Universal<br />
Coordinated Time). UTC has taken<br />
over the function formerly performed<br />
by Greenwich Mean Time<br />
(GMT). UTC and GMT are both<br />
based on longitude zero which<br />
runs through Greenwich near<br />
London. In most cases, the times<br />
in other zones are calculated by<br />
adding or subtracting whole hours,<br />
depending on their respective<br />
distances from the zero meridian.<br />
In a few countries, e.g. Iran,<br />
Afghanistan, India and certain<br />
regions of Australia, there are<br />
also time differences from UTC<br />
of 3½, 4½, 5½ or 9½ hours.<br />
