That was fun...


Thank you Ben Franklin! I just saw 1:59 am become 3 am!

Bastard... I'm off to bed before he steals anymore of my sleep.

Sounds as though you have had a bad nightmare? What had poor Ben Franklin to do with it?

DST screwed me over as well.

Hate having to walk up realizing later on that it's actually an hour later.

I didn't have to worry about that. As I said, I saw an hour go bye-bye.

I got caught out with it in the Middle East yesterday. We had planned some Videoconferences with people in Houston and Mars, Pennsylvania. One guy contacted me from Houston to say they have been waiting for 20 minutes, and then I remembered your e-mail and daylight savings time. That resulted in a good-sized scramble to get people together here. I wonder to how many other people that must have happened in the world and in the US?

Glad I could help.

Right, except I wish I could have really caught on at the time when you explained, as I did not quite get the two together until it was almost too late. But yes, it did help some. What was nice in the end is the opposite of your loss of an hour. We thought we would be having Videoconferences until 7:00 p.m., so as a result not only was it an hour earlier, but we trimmed some of the time to fit the three videoconferences one after the other, so could leave at 5:30 p.m. That was the really good part of it. Just imagine the grumbles if it would have been an hour later?
