But it burned out a year or two ago so it's a moot point now.<BR/><BR/>Why -- I'm pretty ambivalent about it except for the dark both coming and going to work thing. Oh, and I ADORE having that extra light all summer.<BR/><BR/>V -- I like the longer hours of light in the summer or I'd be right there with ya!<BR/><BR/>Ann -- Really? I didn't realize that AZ didn't change zones.

I wish we'd keep it at DST.Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08038052536284974596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6401894034548115444.post-4069498105253968362008-10-29T00:54:00.000-05:002008-10-29T00:54:00.000-05:00I've never like the clock changing ritual.

You can't just change it by decree because it doesn't suit someone's schedule. This is just paternalistic disrespect for Nature.Why S?https://www.blogger.com/profile/16430725193750271819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6401894034548115444.post-16475554951792208972008-10-28T22:24:00.000-05:002008-10-28T22:24:00.000-05:00Now I get to play the twice yearly game of how on ...Now I get to play the twice yearly game of how on earth do you change the clock in the car again! Thankfully, I bought an alarm clock that changes the time on it's own. I never have to set it to the right time, even if the power goes out!MonkeyGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17052353317087292134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6401894034548115444.post-32565903873370002752008-10-28T21:53:00.000-05:002008-10-28T21:53:00.000-05:00This past Saturday, half the clocks in the dispatc...This past Saturday, half the clocks in the dispatch center where I work set themselves back an hour. Just on one side of the room. I called the police dispatch center to ask them what time it was. All their clocks had "fallen back". Utter confusion for about 15 minutes as we googled Daylight Savings Time. And, we were dispatching a medical call when this happened. Time of dispatch: 0158. Time of EMS arrival: 0103. The ambulance got to the call 55 minutes BEFORE being dispatched. Pretty neat trick. =)Jaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03564514698418229865noreply@blogger.com
