Please note that FA Time does not observe daylight savings. It is too 'cool' for daylight savings.

No, it's hard coded into the flash somehow I guess.

wow that sucks lol this might be a bit confusing especially for newer people.  If we schedule something and say "FA Time" they may go by our site instead of central oh well atleast now they have an excuse :)

No, it's not fixed. It's somehow hard coded into the swf file I think. So I can't really do much unless I redo the clock altogether.

Remember that this is only a problem for the next two weeks, no need to get all worried.

On August 8, 2005, President George W. Bush signed the Energy Policy Act of 2005. This Act changed the time change dates for Daylight Saving Time in the U.S. Beginning in 2007, DST will begin on the second Sunday in March and end the first Sunday in November. The Secretary of Energy will report the impact of this change to Congress. Congress retains the right to resume the 2005 Daylight Saving Time schedule once the Department of Energy study is complete.

Normally DST starts the first Sunday in April and goes to the last Sunday of October.

Thank you Dagonet,   what this means Eroz is that since Lithium can't change the date at which the server thinks it should shift the time for DST we have to wait until April until it re-aligns itself which is approx. 2 weeks.

I thought the reason DST is off is because it would be off period, the Flash itself is broken, DST would never work on it.
