  I always thought changing the clocks is stupid and unnecessary, I live in Michigan and work in the area of Indiana where they don't recognize DST, so it can really be confusing, but I never change my alarm clock, the only clocks we change are by the TV, other than that I just stay on Indiana time.
  One of the things I loved about living in Arizona was the fact that they don't mess with the daylight savings time thing either, the natives out there will tell you they don't have to steal sunlight so they don't bother changing the clocks.

I rolled back my clock, but can't roll back the time offset in my profile, it is now 2hrs off.  Just before 6 this morning I got truely confused, my computer had one time, my clock had another, and the forum show yet another. DST sure can suck at times.

Fido. I'm not sure why you're having trouble. I just changed the time difference in my profile from 5  to 4 hours ahead with no problem. It now reads the correct time.

At 10am this morning my wife got out of bed. I jokingly asked her if she enjoyed her extra hour of sleep. She looked at the clock and said she was sorry she slept all the way til 10am.
At 1pm, she called me from work to tell me she just figured out what I ment. Delay time on the joke: 3 hours Cheesy Cheesy
