Just what is EDT?
Please use GMT - that is understood worldwide.

Should be EST, daylight savings time hasn't started yet. And using GMT isn't
going to work with everyone, not everyone knows where they live in relation to
GMT. EST is -5 hours for example.

So us, 'CET' guys are therefor 'forced' to remember that EST
is -5 compared to GMT and since CET is currently at +1 GMT we need to add that
up to know that the difference is 6 Hours between EST and CET 
Me thinks your explanation makes no sence whatsoever, particulary as there are
more BL users 'outside' the EST zone then BL members living 'in'
the EST zone 
It's just an outdated feature, most sites run in each 'propper' timezone...
