Did everyone on Daylight Savings Time REMEMBER to turn your clocks back an hour at 2AM?
Somehow I think I missed that Extra hour of sleep I was suppossed to get.

Well in the state of Indiana we don't believe in it! Thats why I showed up to early for the SSB net. Got lucky and did'nt miss the AM net like I thought. Please don't ask me why us Hoosiers are so stubborn. I don't know any answers. Bc do you know why we don't beleve in setting the clock back? |

Hotwire - Maybe because no one know how to do it? (BIG GRIN)
Heard one women say "Don;t know why we get the extra hour at 2am. I could do with getting it around 8am when my 2 year old is being trpuble at breakfast". |

Why don't they just turn the clocks forward 1/2 hour and forget all the foolishness?
Here at the Tech 833 household, we go by GMT, which does not change. |

i thought Arizona didnt set their clocks back either. im wrong a lot.
i was in Rad Shak on saturday afternoon, (about 1PM) and the lady behind the counter was arguing with her husband that it was "tonight that we set the clocks back!" she looked at me for confirmation, and i had to shake my head NO. she hung up the phone abruptly, and said, " i wondered why i didnt have any customers for the first hour when i opened the store!"
happy halloween everyone!

Well to really make it crazy - there is a town in Australia that is half in one state (NSW) and half in another one (QLD). NSw has daylight saving and QLD doesn't. makes for some fun times. |

Saskatchewan In Canada does not change their clocks either, In the Winter months they are 1 hour. In summer 2 hours behind.
