Thanks for the reminder.

As a PK, (preacher's kid) I remember that the weeks we turn clocks back and spring forward were pure joy for my father, because he would stand in the pulpit and keep track of people who came in late or showed up to church an hour early. My mother did the same thing when she preached. :ernae:

I live where there is no Daylight Savings Time. It makes setting the clocks a lot easier!

There MUST be money in it for politicians, somewhere.

If you cross the International Date Line going west on the day you're supposed to set the clocks back, what time do you set the clock to?

Over hear, it is mostly for kids, so they don't have to go to school in the dark, and also farmers - apparently they are incapable of getting up an hour earlier to milk the cows ! (I wonder who tells the cows ?)

If you cross the International Date Line going west on the day you're supposed to set the clocks back, what time do you set the clock to?

Being as the International date line works off of the GMT Time you set it to GMT then take local 'time band' into account and use that, so that either puts you 12hrs ahead of GMT or 11hrs Behind GMT... heading westwards you'd set for 11hrs behind, heading east you'd factor for +12 hours so if you crossed the line east at midday during DST you'd be at 0100....

i believe thats right....

[cheezyflier]

the easiest way is to allow your computer to aquire a signal somewhere when you land, and let you computer's clock adjust itself. then you can just copy that to your phone, watch, whatever. no math! woohoo!

I hate the time changes; my body hates them more.

I'm starving by 4:00pm and up at the crack of dawn now!
