Okay, I know it's a small thing, and all... but, whenever you guys announce a downtime for patch other emergency maint, you always only give the PDT time. This makes many of us have to go figure out what that translates to for our time zones. I never keep it straight and always forget if it's -3 hours or +3 hours from my time usually.

Can't you just have a way to display this message to people in game using their current time zone?

They give the GMT time in parentheses in the in-game announcements. A few times they did this on the website too...never understood why it wasn't consistently done with the website announcements. It makes it a lot easier to figure out that way....if you don't know your time zone adjustment against GMT, you can find it easily by opening the properties to your date/time settings in Windows (double click the clock in the system tray) and going to the time zone section (have to adjust if on daylight savings time is all, ie: Eastern is GMT-5 or GMT-4 in the Spring/Summer).
