It is correct. We went to daylight savings time last Sunday Morning.

ah yes....you've decided to change the world!
i didn't check you as stateside until now....

i blame it on your fat cats trying to sell more clocks
now what.....i have to mess with microcrap for a new clock?


so, it's all of the usa....
"Across town, residents struggled with the aftereffects brought on by
a three-week-early daylight-saving time cycle. The seasonal clock
change, which normally commences the first Sunday in April, began the
second Sunday of March this year as part of a legislative addition to
the federal 2005 energy bill."

or is this a problem at your server?
your headers say you are posting as CST.....is that as it should be?

regards

We are probably going through several servers and one of them may be "behind
the times" but my headers here show me as GMT -5 which is the correct EST,
but would have been CST before last Sunday at which time I was GMT -4 and
this sentence reminds me of a scene from "Who Killed Roger Rabbit"........

To Thored and Abelard, the YouTube video I was looking for is "the daily
show w. jon stewart: aclockalypse now!" at:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQAlsRYPQ8k

It really is pretty funny and also, substitute some gw hype for the "have
you prepared" queries therein....

right....so that amounts to it's not really my problem....
and i'll have to watch your posts with interest for 3
weeks....urrrrrrgggggggggeeeeeekkkcccchhhhh

regards....

Well, in any event, let me express my appreciation of your originally
considering what you thought was my problem to be your problem.

That was *so* nice........
