Uhm, UTC != GMT Nobody in this comments thread knows what they're talking about and I wouldn't trust anyone here to program anything to do with time.

As far as I can tell, GMT is now UT1 which may not diverge from UTC by more than one second. I don't think conflating the two is especially egregious in this context.
