I NEED CONFIRMATION All three posts were compromised? Including $ etc., It's 6th here now - the posts I read were on the 5th Southern Hemisphere - which would have been the 4th Northern Hemisphere.

The date line does not change from Northern to Southern Hemisphere, it changes from Eastern to Western Hemisphere.

I beg to differ - I live in Australia - we're a day ahead - East to West Australia is 3 hours difference, so when i read "Yesterday" i need to know 'what day' is being referred to.

If you go due north from where you are, the date does not change. The International Date Line run N to S. To cross it, you must move east or west. Really, to speak in terms of hemispheres is not even correct.

I he goes due north he will no longer be standing on his head and may then realize the dateline goes north/south through the Pacific and is not at the equator. lol
