Re: QTIMZON Question

[Brad Stone <bvstone@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'm in CST.

I asked Google what my offset should be in MN.  It said -5

This site says -6:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_time_offsets_by_U.S._state_and_territory
.

Outlook Calendar says -6 (I didn't see a DST setting).

So messed up.
