This one will be a real pain. There are LOTS of devices with clocks
that use the time change algorithm that has been in use since the
70s. Every one of those devices will become obsolete. So, just think
of your favorite devices, such as VCRs, wrist watches, etc. You will
get to replace them all.
We have a year to get our legislators to reverse this situation and
bring sanity back...

my truck (he says hopefully because otherwise, he is screwed) ...
what about the 2.5 and 5 GHz cordless phones we have in the house.
Surely they can't expect us to find the manuals ... can they?
(Actually, did they check about that or care?) What is XP going to
do? (OK, that may be an idle question ... I do wonder if Microsoft
knows what it is going to do, but whatever it does will surely be
billed as a 'feature')
So many really important things in our world to deal with, so many
distractions. Why can't GMT rule?

Milt, if you set your clocks back on the first Sunday in October,
you will be out of sync with the rest of us for about three
weeks. Current law has us setting the clocks back on the LAST
Sunday in October. Well, except for the clocks we keep on GMT/UTC...

HMMM!!!! DST now terminates on the first Sunday in October.
If it is to
end the first Sunday in November beginning in 2007, then that is
a FULL
month more in the fall. ?????????
Clarification please, Jerry, from your XYL.

The XYL to the rescue, AGAIN!...She saved the newspaper
clipping and says
daylight saving will be extended one month overall, not a month
in the
spring and another in the fall...It will begin three weeks
earlier, on the
second Sunday in March, and end a week later on the first Sunday in
November...Starting in 2007...;^)
Jerry, wa2dkg
I heard something about Daylight Savings Time changing
late this year but have not had this confirmed. Do any of you
know about this?
