Alrighty, that's fine. It sucks that it sort of straddles timezones which makes it hard to give a date out.
I'm not really sure what the best thing to do would be here. Maybe just say "Just X hours left until #edit2014!" or similar?

Hi Joe, I agree with your suggestions. UTC would be the best way to go. PCT is poor jargon.
Dec. 17 9:00PM PST (5:00 UTC Dec. 18). would be the time release. However, the timing may change so we'll wait and see.
Thanks Naureen. Once these are posted, I will email the thread with their URLs.

Yeah, no problem. Wasn't sure if you already sent it out.

Hi Naureen. Please do not share any of these yet. I need more review from the rest of the comms team.
