Stefan doesn't want to fix this though because it would set the time back to hours on some servers, and possibly break scripts that rely on timevar for that much time.
The time is GMT+1, though it's about 12 minutes behind (or, if you prefer, GMT plus 48 minutes). So, Valikorlia's timevar2 is around GMT-6 .. minus 12 minutes.

Good to know, I guess.
