[igrav-steering] Registration form

[Christopher North]

Hi,

Draft registration form at https://forms.gle/Uwh77a44Ycoe36FX9

It's in the Shared Google Drive:  https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1kjfhzRrodfo6uXJt3ec-sgtfwSDmNZMr39x7SLKBk7M/edit?usp=sharing

One query I have for anyone contacting the LOC: I'm assuming that the date in the progam (https://www.amaldi14.org/program.html) refers to the Melbourne timezone? Because the "Session 1" is at 0100-1300 Melbourne time, so is actually the previous day​ for almost every other time zone (and to a lesser degree for the 0900-1100 slot).

I've been practicing my temporal mechanics, and I think:
"Thurs 22nd" Session 1 (0100-0300 Melbourne) = Weds 21st 1500-1700 UTC / 0800-1000 PDT
"Thurs 22nd: Session 2 (0900-1100 Melbourne) = Weds 21st 2300-0100 UTC / 1600-1800 PDT
"Fri 23rd" Session 1 (0100-0300 Melbourne) = Thurs 22nd 1500-1700 UTC / 0800-1000 PDT
"Fri23rd" Session 2 (0900-1100 Melbourne) = Thurs 22nd 2300-0100 UTC / 1600-1800 PDT

Doing Session 1 then Session 2 (i.e. parallel with Amaldi's sessions) puts the two sessions 32 hours apart.
Doing Session 2 then Session 1 (in the non-Alamdi slots) puts the two sessions 16 hours apart.

Now my brain hurts.

Cheers,
Chris
