tonado Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 Every spring we have to do this again (changing the clock forward). Monday will be tough to get up. At least the sun will set later. China doesn't do it. I wonder if other counties do it? Link to comment

China doesn't do it. I wonder if other counties do it?Not many countries do it. I was stationed in Korea in 88 when the olypics hit. America convinced them to change to daylight savings time. What a mess, then after the olympics were over, they changed back. In fact, Arizona doesnt even change for the time.... Link to comment
frank1538 Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 I can't wait. My feeble brain always had trouble with a 13 hour difference between Atlanta and China. Glad it's down to 12. Link to comment
Trigg Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 I'm glad it will be down to 13--Frank lives in fast time. It's an Atlanta thing-the real south is in central time. Link to comment
NY-Viking Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 China used to change too, but not on the same dates. And that made things even more annoying ... Link to comment

It's an Atlanta thing-the real south is in central time.Yea, but living in the Eastern time zone does have one advantage. When the Alabama Highway Patrol starts chasing us Georgia drivers, we make a bee line for the border, knowing the cops will lose an hour if they cross into the state. As soon as the cops realize they just lost an hour on us, they give up and go home. Works every time. Link to comment
Trigg Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 Uh, yea Frank, but if your goin' the other way you will be in jail an hour before you get there. Link to comment

NY-Viking Posted April 2, 2005 Report Share Posted April 2, 2005 OK, this is just weird: Daylight Saving Time, for the U.S. and its territories, is NOT observed in Hawaii, American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, most of the Eastern Time Zone portion of the State of Indiana, and the state of Arizona (not the Navajo Indian Reservation, which does observe). Navajo Nation participates in the Daylight Saving Time policy, due to its large size and location in three states. http://webexhibits.org/daylightsaving/index.html What's up with Indiana? Most of the Eastern Time Zone portion of the state? That can't make reservations particularly convenient. Link to comment
