EndreWhiteMane: It's UTC because it's a French term. It is the same as GMT during normal hours but it DOES NOT change with daylight savings. So it and GMT differ by 1 hour for part of the year.
Here we are UTC -6 for part of the year and UTC -5 during daylight savings time.
Edit, that's assuming places within GMT have daylight savings time, some places don't.
moonshineshadow: uh ok. I always thought GMT was also fixed. Meaning that daylight would just make it GMT+1. Ah whatever, time zones are confusing *big hug* Here we are UTC -6 for part of the year and UTC -5 during daylight savings time.
