    Hey Nancy!

    Until the confluence repeats....?

    Maybe but look below to see that it is the year before the official and sanctioned 2024-11-05 cybertoast.

    That is six years from now and who knows for sure but they - whoever 'they' are
    - might decide to switch the standard time switcheroo dealie. I believe it was
    George Bush Junior who decided it needed changing the last time and I still run
    across a few corrupted computer datetime stamps regarding that particular upgrade.

    say maybe 9 or 10pm my time

    Either works for me. If I haven't heard back from you before then I'll fire it
    off at 9pm Rochester time which is the usual time given past experience in these matters.

    Life is good,
    Maurice

    dealie.

    There is that.... I certainly wouldn't mind if it were to be decided to
    stop the switcheroo altogether.... especially if they just went back to
    and stayed with standard time... :)

    I believe it was George Bush Junior who decided it needed
    changing the last time and I still run across a few corrupted computer datetime stamps regarding that particular upgrade.

    It's been messing with my cellphone, too.... haven't quite figured out
    what it really was thinking, but it switched back to standard time on
    Oct 1, then back to daylight time on the 31st... I'm hoping that it
    changes properly tonight to standard time... I don't have any way at
    all to reset that phone's time and date, it's all built in...

    say maybe 9 or 10pm my time

    Either works for me. If I haven't heard back from you before then
    I'll fire it off at 9pm Rochester time which is the usual time given

    Lets do 9pm Rochester time, then... :)
