Daylight Savings!!!!!

Sun Mar 11, 2012 7:55 am

For those of you who have forgotten, this AM was DST! In addition to changing all your clocks at home and in your vehicles, you need to update your settings here too!

Click this link to go to your personalized board settings page: ucp.php?i=prefs&mode=personal

Then click the radio button "YES" for the DST option. Hit submit and viola!

Got this from a friend down in AZ this AM.

It pretty much sums up Daylight Savings Time:

When told the reason
for daylight savings
time the Old Indian
said, "Only the
government would
believe that you could
cut a foot off the top
of a blanket, sew it to
the bottom, and have
a longer blanket"

What more could be said on the subject.

I had to change the board clock this am, right before I bumped the thread. If you made changes before then, I may have undone them.

Darn it. My daily wear Sea Dweller was within 4 seconds after I set it last month.
Had to set two grandfather clocks, have them both down to about 1/4 to 1/2 sec fast per day, not trying to regulate them anymore.
Thats pretty much as close as you can get with cased pendulum clocks.
Room temperature fluctuations, humidity, and imperfect level make it impossible to get to 0.00'.
