Thanks for the reminder!

I almost forgot about daylight saving time. I'll have to do that today as well. Spring forward and Fall back is the rule.

I think the clocks should be moved forward an hour before quitting time on Friday afternoon

I won't change anything until tonight or tomorrow morning.  Cell phone changes automatically!  It'll be nice to have more daylight in the evening though.

I hate this time of the year, and fall ahead to, because I'm reanny never sure when to add the 60 min hop additions.  :-\

No daylight savings time here.  HST (UTC -10) same-same all year round.  You guys move a time zone further away.

I'm all messed up for a week or two after a time change. I hate it.

 1 hour forward, 1 hour back; why not just 30 minutes forward and leave it. Forever and ever >:(

Well that figures. I was maybe a week away from being able to walk to work in daylight. (Although this past week I walked out of the shadow of the mountain on my way, which is pretty cool in and of itself.)

I hate losing sleep.  I think we should just "fall back" twice a year.

Denny...does that mean we'll gain a three day weekend every 12 years?
OK.
I vote "yes".
