what I dont understand about this traffic light thing, is that all it will really do is delay programming for 1 hour.

traffic lights that are set on timers to adjust for traffic flow, may be delayed by one hour in changing for morning traffic patterns so you might have some small amount of delay but it wont shut off the lights. that is silly and clearly not written by someone who understands traffic lights.

I have to drive 35 miles from my house to even FIND a traffic light. We have the metal STOP signs here. At least the worst we have to worry about with those is the fact that rednecks here steal them or plow them down with their dune buggy-- and we have to call in and have the highway dept come out and replace them occasionally.

About the worst thing I see happening that might affect me personally is my computer won't reset the time itself, and I'll have to manually reset it this year.

FYI: DST Begins This Weekend!

Remember to set your clocks forward one hour this Saturday. DST is starting two weeks earlier than usual. Thankfully it has been changed, usually they do it around Easter time.

Don't forget---don't be late for church!!!!!!!!!!! (hint, hint rgc)

You need to have SS stop a bit before 10:30, so we have a place to go when we get there at 10:25....lol!

The patch they've used to correct this has messed up our meeting calendar on Outlook. I'm glad - I hate meetings.

No, I figure if I get out of meetings, that's a good thing!

If I can't get my money out of the bank to buy food, then I'll eat all the stuff in my pantry (to clean it out) and by then they'll have it all fixed.

If I can't buy gas, then I'll stay home and read a good book.
