Why are the times of the messages posted on Dirk Pepperds Board several hours offset from my local time?
Nothing, the message board host computer uses a time reference that is 3 hours ahead of east coast CONUS time. The time reference for your message will be somewhere between the CONUS east coast and Europe. For example, someone posting a message from the CONUS East coast at 12 noon will see a time stamp of 1500. Someone posting a message from the CONUS West coast at 0900 will also see a time stamp of 1500. What is the significance of the “Red Bandana?” Some Space-A passengers will wear or tie a red bandanna to their carry-on luggage to signify that they participate in the pepperd.com message board. There’s no guarantee that someone displaying a red bandanna is a fellow internet Space-A “expert” but you’ll never know unless you approach them and introduce yourself!
