And just to make things even more confusing when we do change our clocks over here only parts of the country will. (ie not is Saskatchewan and Arizona)

I guess I'm the April Fool then! But I'm a wiser fool now! Thanks for furthering my education!

Should someone give me a diploma or something?

Cheers!

Did your Windows automatically move your clock forward for you? Hmm, maybe if I change the regional settings in the control panel, it will move the clock at a different date?

That's how I always know when to move the clock: the computer tells me.

Yes, Winbugs is aware of this. One of the few things that "work correctly" plus our secretary always warns me to schedule conference calls with US colleagues accordingly in this week.

Fortunately, AZ doesn't participate in daylight savings time. The Last thing we need is an extra hour of daylight in the summer!

That's funny. I know you are joking, but it reminds me of an older relative of mine. She didn't understand the principle of DST very well. She would complain that she couldn't adjust to losing that hour of sleep every night until the clocks got set back in the fall again.

I hate DST; it's a useless bit of idiocy IMO.
