| The site will be down during the monthly maintenance
scheduled at 01/20 from 01:00 AM to 02:00 EST.
What is EST? It means nothing to me.
Can the time also be shown as GMT??

Then they would need to put all 38 hour timezones, so as not to favour a particular
group.
Better that they just use BL time, that is EST.

Eastern Standard Time
Basically the east coast of the US. Since Bricklink is based there in California.
My Timezone map shows it as -8 hours from GMT

Pfough, compasses! No need for technology: use the sun or the stars¹ and moss
on trees!
(¹Yes, it’s a problem when it’s cloudy or when you don’t know the time….)
(²Yes, it’s a problem where there’s no tree… or no moss… or you’re _in_ the forest
and moss is all around every tree and rock….)
