Again, the daylight saving time has started (at least in Europe). Ugh, it hate it. What use does it really have besides some exercise in "how to adjust the clock on your VCR without users manual" ?

Anyway - did the USA also switch this weekend to DST?

I will not adjust the time settings in this forum - if you want to change your timezone, please open your http://www.mscl.com/forum/profile.php?mode=editprofile and modify your time zone setting.

But I'll change the time zones display at the bottom of each page on MSCL.com next week.

Sascha,

No, I believe Europe changes to DST before the US does. Sunday April 6th is when most of the United States will changes to DST (Large parts of Indiana being the exception to this).

Best,

Here's an article about various standards of time; though I must confess, I still don't "get" DST.

DST is just a front for the OTO, which of course is just a front for the Rosicrucians.... but I have said to much already... :?

I always figured it was an evil Communist plot to turn your mind to putty and make you vulnerable to brainwashing. You know, like flouridated water and algebra...

Same procedure as every year: DST is over in most countries.
If your displayed timezone on the forum (in postings and such) is not correct, you can change your current forum timezone setting in your Image Profile

Arrrgh, as much as I like sleeping an extra hour, I hate that it's pitch dark when I leave work!

:evil:

Look, if this is weird for you, being tutored? I don't mind helping you a little longer.
You could have sex with me if you really want to help...I guess that's a "no"?
