317 314 # From Chris Carrier (1996-06-27):
318 315 # Siple, the first commander of the South Pole station,
319 316 # stated that he would have liked to have kept GMT at the station,
320 317 # but that he found it more convenient to keep GMT+12
321 318 # as supplies for the station were coming from McMurdo Sound,
322 319 # which was on GMT+12 because New Zealand was on GMT+12 all year
323 320 # at that time (1957). (Source: Siple's book 90 Degrees South.)

327 324 # (1995-11-13 16:24:56 +1300, no longer available):
328 325 # We use the same time as McMurdo does.
329 326 # And they use the same time as Christchurch, NZ does....
330 327 # One last quirk about South Pole time.
331 328 # All the electric clocks are usually wrong.
332 329 # Something about the generators running at 60.1hertz or something
333 330 # makes all of the clocks run fast. So every couple of days,
334 331 # we have to go around and set them back 5 minutes or so.
335 332 # Maybe if we let them run fast all of the time, we'd get to leave here sooner!!
