PDT = Pacific Daylight-savings Time
EST = Eastern Standard Time.

For the United Sates, almost evey timezone is either *DT or *ST, depending on the time of year. You might be talking about Indiana, which is always EST, even if every other time zone is on the Daylight-savings mode.

Ok, let's take the next update for example:
Jul. 6, 2004 from 10:00 to 13:00 (PDT)

So, on the 6th of July, maintenance is estimated to be during...
PDT (CA, NV, Most of OR, WA, north IA): 10:00 ~ 13:00
MST (Arizona, currently): 10:00 ~ 13:00
MDT (MT, ID, WY, UT, CO, NM, some NE, some SD): 11:00 ~ 14:00
CDT (TX, OK, KS, NE, SD, ND, MN, IA, MO, AR, LA, MS, AL, TN (south), KY (west)): 12:00 ~ 15:00
PST (Indiana, currently): 12:00 ~ 15:00
PDT (the rest of the states excluding Hawaii and Alaska): 13:00 ~ 16:00

So, if you are in___ subtract___to get to current PDT
PDT... 0 Hours
MST... 0 Hours
MDT... 1 Hour
CDT... 2 Hours
EST... 2 Hours
EDT... 3 Hours

I hope this helps,

Edit: Good eye, ifandbut!!

Um...you might want to edit your post....you have PDT listed 2 times with different offsets. I belive that the last to in that list should be EST and EDT.
