St. Gregory the Confessor?

Two things struck me as interesting about Archimandite George's post.

1) Many have known Archbishop Gregory to be one of the great confessing hierarchs of our time .

I thought the reason St. Maximos the Confessor and others got their title of "confessor" is because they confessed Christ under ...

The way I understood it was that ideally, Matins was before dawn. The first hour is right after dawn. The 3rd hour about 9:00, the sixth about noon, and ninth about 3:00pm.

Matins: before dawn
1st: after dawn (or 6:00am)
3rd: 9:00am (approx.)
6th: 12:00 noon (approx.)
9th: 3:00pm (approx.)

Even a graceless heretic swine like myself knows that you are supposed to have nothing to eat or drink after midnight.
