It's in your profile section.  Click on profile and it's on one of those preferences/setup/display pages.  It's from Greenwich Munich time, something like that in Europe, so the US is around -4 to -8, I think.  Something like that.

GMT stands for Greenwich Meridian Time, actually.

You're both wrong!  It's Greenwich MEAN Time.

Greenwich.  In Europe.  That's all that really registered for me.  And they're ahead of the US, so we're negative GMT.

However, people can be nosey and go into your profile and see your "local time" which would be whatever you set your time zone to be.
