Daylight Savings Time

I ran across this news item:

"The move from Daylight Saving Time to Standard Time doesn't happen this year until the first Sunday in November, instead of the usual last Sunday in October.

That means computer software, cellphones and other electronic equipment that is programmed to automatically change will have to be manually reset Monday morning back to Daylight Saving Time, then changed back one hour next Sunday."

Since most computer clocks adjust the time themselves (on the task bar in the lower right hand corner) you may have to keep the above in mind.

:shock:

Isn't this insane?

I had to work over the w/e & was hoping for an extra hour of sleep before having to come in yesterday...no such luck.

Both my home computer & work computer will be wrong for this week because what's the point of adjusting them twice?

My mother said England changed hours as usual, so I have a 4 hour time difference with her this week instead of 5.
