dont know why people whinge about this..........

just stay in bed for an hour later, i intend to, depending on how the misses fancies it :)

apart from the poor people who support SAP systems as SAP state they should be turned off for full compliance with clock changes of this nature :laugh:

I thought I'd let everyone know that for some reason the US turns their clocks ahead the first Sunday in April, instead of the last Sunday in March like the rest of the world. As this board is located in the states, all the members in the rest of the world will be an hour early here for the next week. There's always the possibility that this won't be a problem with vbulletin 3, however I doubt it.

Lol, I was tryin to set the clocks forward today and my roommate looked at me like I was crazy. Didn't know we were a week behind the rest of the world. I guess we just like to be different :)

I don't really see the point of putting them forwards and back anymore- i think it used to be to allow farmers to get an extra hour of sunlight in the morning around autumn time to do their harvesting but doubt thats an issue anymore.

I don't see the argument about needing extra light in the morning for the school run- doesn't the argument work in reverse for the end of school run too?
