I thought the only "official" time was Grenwich Mean Time.
That would help me a bit in New Zealand. All those letters mean nothing to me.

Technically the term Greenwich Mean Time is obsolete. The correct designation is UTC, which are the initials for the French words corresponding to Universal Coordinated Time. However, UTC and GMT are the same.

The other letters are simply time zones in the US.
I don't know exactly what time it works out for New Zealand but do know that it will be Monday morning your local time.

FYI - - - If you are using Windows, double click on the time on the lower right of your screen. (the right end of the taskbar) When the "date/time properties" box comes up, select the "time zone" tab. That should tell you all you want to know about relative world time. :-) Hope this helps.
Stay tuned!!!
John
