I find it more impressive when done in GMT. That way, 12 hr, 34 min, and 56 sec into the day, the official Greenwich time stamp will be 12:34:56 07/08/09 GMT. Of course, this is all based on an arbitrary agreement...but still neat.

I had a hiatal hernia for several years, and it gave me the most horrible refulx I have ever seen. However, the good news is that I never once saw any corrleation bewtween reflux and BG levels (aside from what I had eaten...). I found that a Pril...
