Good to hear, alison. Maybe soon you'll be able to watch Youtube like normal people...
This isn't exactly surprising:
Which Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle are You? | |
![]() ![]() Donatello You've been described as 'the brains' of your family or group of friends. You're the natural born, 'Mr. Fixit'. You're also considered the most reserved, preoccupied with your own little thoughts and ideas. But that doesn't mean you don't hang with your family and friends! But, you still find it easy to get lost in your own thoughts...daydreaming often. You'd rather talk things out than fight. You long for a day when there's nothing but peace in the world, and when you can finally rest with your own thoughts. Violence is something the world could completely live without. One of your labels may be, 'true to blue friend'. You're strong at heart and powerful at mind. | |

oh puh-lease...
Which Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle are You? | |
![]() ![]() Master Splinter You're wise beyond your years, and you're normally very, VERY calm in even the darkest of problems. You spend much time thinking over problems, trying to help others around you, and enjoying time alone and with family. Though you are a skilled warrior, at either power or mind, you prefer peace, harmony, and silence. Others look to you for help and words of wisdom, and often take your advise eagerly and with little question. | |

I think my favourite response to the problem was a letter in the Journal suggesting that, for the three weeks (or however much it is) that DST has been pushed up, you just set recording times on your VCR one hour earlier. Then the automatic time change kicks in and you're only inconvenienced for three weeks.
Because that's much easier than just setting the VCR clock one hour ahead manually.
EDIT: Here's the text of the letter. Brilliant.
Daylight time
The Edmonton Journal
Published: Tuesday, March 06, 2007
Next Sunday, daylight time kicks in, to the inconvenience of folks whose time settings on computers and VCRs will need adjustments.
Code patches will take care of most computer problems, but VCRs which automatically adjust for DST will need to be manually reset twice in the spring and twice again in the fall.
There is an alternative: During the three weeks this spring when DST takes effect sooner than in other years, simply set recording times with your unchanged VCR one hour earlier than the times scheduled for the broadcasts you want to tape.
Do the same thing during the discrepant week this fall, with settings one hour later than published times.

But while other countries have coped, Americans have largely become complacent and expect many clocks to change automatically because dates have been set for two decades, said Lauren Weinstein, a veteran technologist.
Poor Americans, no one gives them too much credit, huh?

Don't forget about the mini-Y2K tonight. I guess you'd better break out your hamster-wheel generators and your eye-droppers of water.
