Whenever possible we spell out the month and date vs. using the more common U.S. number abbreviations (January 26 vs. 1/26). And we've recently added "add to calendar" as a feature in our email invitations so the time will automatically adjust for you. But that doesn't help you if you are reading a post and trying to schedule. We'll put this into play next time around. Sincere thanks for the suggestion.

Because in Europe we've got "Central European Time" (GMT +1) while this probably means "Central Standard Time" (GMT - 6) Tip #1 should be: Never assume that your audience is in the same timezone as you are and don’t assume that they know what “1:00 -1:30 p.m. Central” is in their timezone.
