|
|
# It keeps the same time as Punta Arenas, Chile, because, just like us
|
|
# and the South Pole, that's the other end of their supply line....
|
|
# I verified with someone who was there that since 1980,
|
|
# Palmer has followed Chile. Prior to that, before the Falklands War,
|
|
# Palmer used to be supplied from Argentina.

# Amundsen-Scott, South Pole, since 1957-01-23
|

# From Paul Eggert (1996-09-03):
|
|
# Normally it wouldn't have a separate entry, since it's like the
|
|
# larger Antarctica/McMurdo since 1970, but it's too famous to omit.
|
|
#
|
|
# From Chris Carrier <72157.3334@CompuServe.COM> (1996-06-27):
|
|
# Siple, the first commander of the South Pole station,
|
|
# stated that he would have liked to have kept GMT at the station,
|
|
# but that he found it more convenient to keep GMT+12
|
|
# as supplies for the station were coming from McMurdo Sound,
|
|
# which was on GMT+12 because New Zealand was on GMT+12 all year
|
|
# at that time (1957). (Source: Siple's book 90 degrees SOUTH.)
|
|
#
|
|
# From Susan Smith <URL:http://www.cybertours.com/whs/pole10.html>
|
|
# (1995-11-13 16:24:56 +1300): We use the same time as McMurdo does.
|
|
# And they use the same time as Christchurch, NZ does....
|
|
# One last quirk about South Pole time.
|
|
# All the electric clocks are usually wrong.
|
|
# Something about the generators running at 60.1hertz or something
|
|
# makes all of the clocks run fast. So every couple of days,
|
|
# we have to go around and set them back 5 minutes or so.
|
|
# Maybe if we let them run fast all of the time, we'd get to leave here sooner!!
