It says on my calendar today "Daylight Savings Begins" today, but my computer didn't change the time like it normally did. I have to be somewhere in ten minutes if it isn't. Can anyone else confirm??

my cablebox says 10:49am... my computer says 10:49am (and i just did a sync)... so i'm guessing its... 10:49am.

You do not change your clocks today. Right now, we are in Daylight Savings. Oct. 27, we change our clocks back to regular time.

Bump.

We get an extra hour to sleep/party/work this Saturday night (or should I say Sunday early morning 2am) :)

Just for an easy to remember reference, DST starts the last Sunday in October and end on the first Sunday in April.

I would hereby like to propose that we ALWAYS stay on daylight savings time. Regular time sucks. Gets dark at 5:00PM... that's a bunch of crap.

Still too hard. :) I don't remember the last time my computer wasn't the first one to inform me that I'm already hours into the time change. But, now that I leave the computer on all day, I'm scared, will it put up a notice when it does change the time, or will it wait for me to restart the computer?

<== scared monkey dance

Set your clocks ahead one hour when you go to bed Saturday night, Oct 26th. The time change is official at 2AM the 27th.

There, wasn't that easy?

If you set your clock an hour ahead, it will be two hours fast when you wake up. :p You set the clocks back an hour in the fall.

Doesn't affect Indy:D


Most of our farmers would go crazy if the time changed on them
