No; out of respect for the people who were actually there at the time
(hence America can be a day behind).
I'll give UTC some thought (which I use for space-related stuff anyway)
but for example I have no idea which American timezone is which (I only
know British i.e. UTC and Australian).
On the other hand, I may just stop posting historical stuff completely; I
don't really care either way, and I would really like to get back to
Amateur ("ham") radio and electronics in general.
