    They’re technically the same anyway, only the name is different.

    Also, I hate the name UTC, simply because the order of the letters of the acronym don’t match up with the first letters of the words of which the acronym stands for, which is Coordinated Universal Time, and not Universal Time Coordinated like I always thought.

      Huh, I always thought it was French, but Wikipedia says UTC was a compromise intentionally neither French nor English. Politics is weird

        Nope, in French it would TUC: Temps Universel Coordonné

        That actually sounds like a cracker.
