Daylight savings

[Q]

All you US people better remember to turn your clocks AHEAD tonight.

 

[MuFu]

Good idea. We didn't last week and my sis was late for work, doh.

 

[Q]

I hate the way it just sneaks up on ya.

 

[fury]

I don't have to set my clock back

 

[Squiggy]

Just what I need....Another hour...

Just curious, since most of the admins here live in Indiana, and most of Indiana doesn't observe daylight savings time, will this have any effect on the time settings on the board? Does vb automatically adjust for it? Doesn't that mess you folks up that don't observe it? What's the current price of eggs in China?

Just what I need....Another hour...

You actually loose an hour Squiggy

 

[Q]

I made a slight error in my first post Clocks go ahead in the spring...

 

[alex]

Spring forward....Fall back

will this have any effect on the time settings on the board?

Nope, the server should go into DST sometime tonight too. The only settings it screws up are the time zones for people who aren't affected by DST (e.g. those in indiana and parts of those other states below it. )

Does vb automatically adjust for it?

No

Doesn't that mess you folks up that don't observe it?

Yup, we usually have to reprogram our VCRs

What's the current price of eggs in China?

Apparently $250... (scroll down to the bottom)

 

[Squiggy]

Wow....Now its like I get to lose 2 hours...

 

[alex]

65 bazillion year old egg for $250........that's better than buying an old coin

 

[Q]

Bet it smells real bad...

DST is dumb. The farmers have headlights now. See:

 

[Squiggy]

Now he wants the farmers to put in a 24 hour day....

 

[Q]

We don't do it cuz of the farmers anymore...we do it so the little children aren't standing at the bus stops in the dark in the winter time....

 

[Gonz]

Ah, I see. Have every adult, most incapable of setting VCRs in the first place, tinker with every clock in the friggin house & work & the car & the watch & wherever else they may have them is easier than letting kids sleep an hour longer, thus feeling brighter & chippier for 2 months.

 

[Q]

Hey....it wasn't MY idea.

...don't kill the messenger, Mr. Propaganda
