This is an important announcement for all time zones that observe Daylight Savings:

Daylight Savings begins tonight. Please be sure to set your clocks forward one hour.

yea but in Europe they do it a week earlier I think. I did kind of forget about it though.

Losing an hour of sleep is worth having light evenings. :)

Half-way there.

At least I won't wake up in the mornings with sun in my face.

Grrrr. Well, at least my one clock that I never set back last fall will be accurate again!

I have never understoond what the point was to daylight savings. Can someone explain it to me, please?

The farmers needed more light to plant the crop in the Spring and harvest it in the Fall.

Ugh. Of course, right when I'm about to go back to school. I hate this just as much every year, even though I'm used to it after a week or so. But it's the most horrible week of the entire year.


:D

And yes, we already did the switch a week ago in Europe. Now I can go back to knowing what time offset there is between the US states and me.

I recently read a newspaper report saying that not having Daylight Saving Time wouldn't affect our lives that much at all.

I didn't even lose an hours sleep when it was first changed here. I forgot to change my clock and then I saw that it was 12pm so I got up but it was really 1pm.

My computer does it on it's own. :(

Having it become night at 6 PM is kind of annoying, so I'll lose an hour of sleep for that. Not like I get all that many hours of sleep anyways. :/

Daylight savings was invented in my town, I win.

And you Americans are, indeed, all a week late, just to be awkward most likely.

Yamaneko
04-03-2005, 07:40 PM
HAHAHA! It's almost 12pm. I totally forgot and I thought it was almost 11am. Damn I slept a long time. :D

EDIT: Wtf? All my watches and clocks are screwed up. Some are one hour ahead, some are one hour behind, and some are correct.

You mean like renaming everything? :D

Lindy

Yeah, you Americans are pretty awkward renaming things and spelling them wrong, it's a real problem, you should get it sorted.

Without resorting to therapists or lawyers to do it though.
