    GMT is 5 hours before EST. midnight EST is 5:00GMT
    I like the two midnight dive suggestion if there is enough similar flow through the keyhole.
    I'll have to be in Ginnie, since my daughters are not yet cave cert.

    Part right. Using Greenwich England as a starting point every 15 degrees of longitude equals 1 hour. Since the U.S. is West of England and East of the International Date Line we divide our exact longitude by 15 and add that number to get GMT. Since High Springs Fl. is 82*36' W it works out to be 5 1/2 hours. You are correct about using the number 5 for EST but EST covers a wide area. But who really cares what time it is as long as we are having fun.

    Has there been any sort of gear exchange done at these events in the past? I just thought others might be like me and have a few things that others might find useful just laying around the closet.

    I haven't seen a confirmation, but I'm assuming the social will be Saturday before the dive Saturday night. Correct?

    Daytime social around noon. Evening social around 7pm. If we have only one Galaxy Dive it will be around 11:45pm. If we have more than twenty people, we will add another one around 9pm. Those that sign up earliest will have the option to choose which dive they want to make.

    Used to be two a year gear exchanges at Ginnie,and my understanding is that it was shut down due to concern that it was competing with Ginnie's gear sales.
