A reminder to move clocks ahead 1 hour tommorow night

#1 Postby **cycloneye** » Wed Apr 02, 2003 9:15 am

It is that time again that (Eastern Daylight Time) arrives and dont forget to move your clocks 1 hour ahead on saturday night and because of that you will have one hour less to sleep.

I'm sure glad I am not alone in this. I really do miss that hrs sleep. And I am cranky until October, too.
And ceye, you are fortunate that they don't change your time. I wish they didn't change ours either. The time is the time so why change it???? :grr:

I know, to give others an extra hr of daylight. I would rather have my hour :lol:

Daylight Saving Time, for the U.S. and its territories, is NOT observed in Hawaii, American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, most of the Eastern Time Zone portion of the State of Indiana, and the state of Arizona (not the Navajo Indian Reservation, which does observe). Navajo Nation participates in the Daylight Saving Time policy, due to its large size and location in three states.

I never go to bed at the exact same time anyway so I am just as likely to "lose" that hour on any given night. :roll:

Just have to make sure I do it Saturday night before I go to bed - so I won't be late for church on Sunday - now thats embarrassing.

Thanks gator for the information about where the changing of the clocks doesn't happen.

Interesting that in a little portion of Arizona the clocks change at the indian reservation and the rest of the state stays without any change.

The Navajo Nation in Land Size is anything but 'little'.Moreover,Arizona in land size ranks 6th overall in US States.Nearly eavrything is 'large in scale' out West.
I am also surprised that you did not mention that Puerto Rico is on Atlantic Time,one hour ahead of Eastern Standard..many people do not realize this,assuming it is on Eastern Time.
Now,ask me about whether or not Jackalopes really exist! :wink:

I wish someone would pass a law to get rid of changing the clocks. I vote to leave it one way or the other.

Yes Puerto Rico is one hour ahead of the east right now as we are at (Atlantic Standard Time) but we will be with the eastern time zone from sunday morning.
