Tic-Toc-Tic-Toc=We are now at daylight savings time

#1 Postby cycloneye » Sun Mar 28, 2004 7:59 am

Well guys is that time once again dont forget to move those clocks ahead one hour next saturday night with the exception of our friends in Arizona that never change their clocks.There are other states that dont move their clocks but I dont remember which are.The change exactly starts at 2:00 AM EDT on sunday morning and it is called daylight savings time.

finally!
now I can watch my prime time TV shows at 10:00 PM instead of 11:00 PM which is way too late for me.
I love it when the U.S. is on daylight savings time!

I like the change also because I can watch the baseball games more early. :) For those who may not know Puerto Rico and the eastern caribbean islands are at Atlantic Standard Time.Now we are at the same time as in the east coast EDT from april 4.

All it means for me is that Eastern Time will be three hours ahead of me, Central will be two, and the west coast will be back to even.

And, if we had our way here, we'd speed up the clock so the sun would set by 4 pm in the summer! That way it could cool down to 100 by 8 pm!!!

Here in Puerto Rico we will be 3 hours of difference from the west coast at april 4th instead of the 4 hours that we are now.
