Title: All That Hyp About Change In Daylight Saving Time And ???
Post by: Henry on March 11, 2007, 08:09:39 AM

Hi all,

Remember Y2K, so many years ago when we were all concerned about what was going to happen.  Well there was quite a concern about what was going to happen at 2 a.m. this morning.  They had a bunch of patches and instructions that you could download for the change in Daylight Savings Time, but thought, "I can't believe Microsoft hasn't got some update in there."

Well, apparently they did, because this morning my computer is on Daylight Savings Time and all I did is turn it on normally.

Have a great day,

Our computer updated itself as well.
The digital thermometer has not, though. Usually it gets a signal from the nuclear clock in Colorado, but the little emblem that appears when connected is not on. And because I don't know where the instruction booklet went, I do not know how to do it manually. For those who have clocks and VCRs that have a setting for automatic DST, you need to turn that off.

The digital thermometer has reset itself, and the little signal from the nuclear clock is now visible.
I updated my website last night, but Verizon's website software was not updated. I posted after midnight, but when I published, it showed the time as being an hour behind.

Hi Mike,

Not to worry, Verizon is probably saving our hard earned dollars and didn't want to call anybody in on overtime to do that.  They will probably do that on regular hours today.
