    this is the time zone change to fiji +12hours 18:25 11/11/2014

    sorry will stop but think the time change / time zone change is the easiest way to change a post time. which if you wish to check the post reply time will be normal time as per Kevins post to page, thus throwing out columbus directs screen grabs.


    just spotted too, if you change your time zone then look at post to pag, that changes accordingly too which would indicate the correct time is shown on post to page.

    Thanks for finding that - I think, having looked closely at the results of that search, that there can be little doubt now that the whole thing is a stinking sham.
