So you've found your time machine ;)

I find these new year things boring...realized that I really couldn't care less about what year it is  ::)

But Happy New Year anyway!

Some of us don't need a webcam, either for 2015 or for the galahs. Though by this time I suspect the res of you can see 2015 just fine by now.

Here, I can start to see the rust forming on 2015 and the galahs are all safely abed.

It's Jan 2 already over there, isn't it?  Middle of the day?

Ah, ok.  That makes more sense.  Thanks.  I was wondering why the webcam was dark.

So it must be about... mid-morning there now?

Yep, that's what I was thinking.  It's easier to add the hours and flip AM/PM. 

You guys do a 24 hour clock though?

Which of course would be much less confusing...but at least you're using metric system, right? So there's some hope for you...

I actually use fully metric time. But it seems I'm sadly alone in that. Happy 12,544,253,987,623,521,734.9872369587234, by the way.
