[Drunken Irishman]

2. Sweet! I'll be able to watch it. :)

Thanks!

[jenmito]

4. No problemo! I saw it posted on another thread here.

I'LL be watching it, too. :hi:

5. I thought it was 1pm their time??

So it's at 7:00 Berlin time?

Shit, I might have to stay home from work. :grr:

[jenmito]

7. No-1pm OUR time (ET):

"The Obama campaign and the German government have selected the Pillar of Victroy (Siegessäule)for Barack's speech. It is a great location and is actually opposite the Brandenburg Gate. The speech is scheduled to take place on Thursday the 24th at 7pm CET, or 1pm EST. Here is a link to the story."

16. Yeah. I guess they take work seriously and all...

Unlike myself. ;)

3. Berlin is 6 hours ahead of us.

So I guess that makes 7:00am, if it runs on schedule. Probably more like 8:00 before he speaks though.

6. Think you've got this wrong. It would be 7 p.m. Berlin time, not 7 a.m.

That makes more sense, doesn't it?

[Drunken Irishman]

8. If it's 7 a.m. their time, I'll see it right before bed. haha

[jenmito]

9. The article says the speech will be 7pm THEIR time and they are 6 hours AHEAD of us making it 1PM ET

our time. For example, right now, it's 3:11am in Germany.

10. AMBER IS THE COLOR OF YOUR ENERGY! WHOA!

[jenmito]

12. I don't know what you mean by that, but it seems like a compliment...

Am I right? :D

[Faygo Kid]

13. I KNEW it was 3:11 a.m. somewhere. Everybody drink!

I will finish my evening cocktail by toasting you, jenmito.

[jenmito]

15. OK! Thanks, faygokid!

:toast: :beer:

[jenmito]

11. It IS 7pm their time which is 1pm OUR time. THEY are 6 hours AHEAD of us. It'll only br 1pm here.

[jenmito]

14. I think you're calculating it as if WE'e 6 hours ahead of THEM. It's 7pm their time and 1pmET OUR

time.

[DebJ]

17. I'll have to record it. Who will broadcast it? In full?

[jenmito]

18. I'm sure all 3 cable networks will cover it in full. n/t
