OK, now I'm confused!
I tried ringing the number (+ 1 734 647 2803) at 17:00 BST (British Summer
Time) which I believed to be 16:00 GMT, but got no response.
Then I checked my email to find that you had begun (or not) an hour earlier.
I have no idea what EDT or PDT are, as my time-zone converter doesn't know
of either of them (I did find an EST5EDT and a PST8PDT but don't know what
these are!)

So, when is tomorrow's meeting? :-)
