bill	posted 22-Jan-2008 8:24pm   OK, I was way off...
cloudhugger	posted 22-Jan-2008 9:06pm   Can I go to the bathroom?
ausfox	posted 23-Jan-2008 3:15am   Don't know, don't care
icurok	posted 23-Jan-2008 5:16am   I'm going to guess -8. Most people don't realise that because of the tilt the Americas, New York City is further West than Chile, so I think Easter Island is probably due South from California.

romkey	(reply to icurok) posted 23-Jan-2008 8:36am   I'd guessed the same thing. When we were there a few days ago it was the same time as it is in New York (due to DST).
JessicaWoman99	posted 23-Jan-2008 5:44pm   I could not begin to guess
Biggles	posted 23-Jan-2008 6:54pm   I took a wild stab in the dark... British time is easy. British time I know. Easter Island time...not so much.

romkey	(reply to Biggles) posted 23-Jan-2008 8:48pm   I wasn't ever sure what time it was when I was there. The answer is Central Time - UTC-6. I really hadn't been cognizant of the fact that the west coast of South America (or at least, Chile) was east of the east coast of the US till recently.
cloudhugger	(reply to romkey) posted 23-Jan-2008 9:49pm   Depends. Depends on whether or not I am asked another question from a lesson I missed because I had to go to the bathroom during it.
romkey	(reply to cloudhugger) posted 23-Jan-2008 9:51pm   Um... there's a comparative religion and logic lesson going on but that's in another survey... I think it can wait while you go.
cloudhugger	(reply to romkey) posted 23-Jan-2008 10:09pm   ooooooh religion and logic I'll take my pass now so I won't be late!

cloudhugger	(reply to romkey) posted 23-Jan-2008 10:25pm   HAAAaaaaaa! Good one! I hope I don't go to hell after this
icurok	(reply to romkey) posted 24-Jan-2008 5:24am   Geographically, it looks like it ought to be in UTC-7 but it appears to have gatecrashed UTC-6. I never understood what gain islands got from belonging to the next one over. link
romkey	(reply to icurok) posted 24-Jan-2008 6:16am   When we were there, the sun was rising at 7:30AM... that felt a little late. But there's not really much industry or farming there; it's almost all tourism. Maybe it helps people feel closer to Chile.

Zang	posted 24-Jan-2008 11:10am   Oo! I got it right!
Iseult	posted 24-Jan-2008 1:35pm   UTC -10. My second choice would be UTC +10.
Biggles	(reply to romkey) posted 25-Jan-2008 1:05pm   And I didn't know until now
romkey	(reply to Zang) posted 26-Jan-2008 3:41pm   You did! Congratulations! You get your very own imaginary moai!
