I don't know what time zone, though... Well, the world was created on Oct 24, 4004 BC, at 2:00 in Mesopotamia ;^D
So it should be easy to figure out the time zone.

I don't know what time zone, though... Hey, close enough.

There were no time zones in 4004 BC. Back then, the Earth was still flat.

Yup. Looks like we are routinely and continuously exposed to ancient organisms without harm. I've got the scars from the mother-raptor in law to dispute that statement, thank you.
