Simple pleasures! :) We have two clock radios that do that, which are initially set by selecting the time zone. The bad part is, there is no “Arizona” time zone listed, so we have to do the opposite with setting the clocks with the beginning and ending of DST. The easiest way is to simply toggle back and forth between time zones rather than actually resetting the time itself. -- Wayne Boatwright (correct the spelling of "geemail" to reply) ******************************************* Date: Sunday, 11(XI)/02(II)/08(MMVIII) ******************************************* Today is: All Souls Day Countdown till Veteran's Day 1wks 1dys 13hrs 5mins ******************************************* CURSOR: What you become when your |

Why is there a window in a washer, but not in a dishwasher? Because if you have them placed next to one another, Murphy's Law says that at some point someone will put their dishes in the wrong machine, and china (or China for that platter, er, matter) don't handle spin-drying too well ... I'm told :-) If this is old news for anyone, do you know if dishwashers eat socks as well? Bonusinfo: owens and microwave owens also have windows! Some refrigerators come with Windows now, but that's another story! sayonara Martin Mose Larsen Life is like a newsgroup thread: you never know what you're going to get! |

I can appreciate that DST may have its uses in the summer when it allows an extra hour of sunlight for outdoor activities. It is irrelevant in the north where the sun stays up much later anyway. This recent extension was supposed to be for the sake of energy conservation, and IMO is a complete farce. The trade off for the extra hour of daylight at the end of the day means waking up in the dark. Being retired I get up when I feel like it, except for Sundays when I set the alarm for 7 am to get to my riding lesson in time. The previous three Sunday mornings have been dark. When I got up this morning it was nice and bright outside and I didn't have to turn on lights to find my way around in the house. |

BTDT, it's not a problem. Is the sun coming up at 4AM so much worse than at 5AM? Not for me, and that's why they invented curtains. I simply don't like switching back and forth, nor do most people. One hour of daylight in either direction is not a factor for anyone in this day and age of electric lights. -- I never worry about diets.

It helps to adjust a bit for kids and the bus schedules so it's light more often than not when they go and come home. No other real reason for it. |

That is the thing that makes no sense to me. The extension of DST this year was supposed to be in order to save energy. By extending DST to the first Sunday in November it was getting darker and darker in the morning. If they figure that we are going to save energy by not having the lights on as early in the evening maybe someone should point out that we had to have them on in the morning instead. |
