Day light savings time and the rest of the World.

Postby denishc » Tue Apr 05, 2005 5:18 pm

 This past weekend, here in the U.S., we retuned form daylight savings time by turning our clocks forward one hour.  As usual this cought me by surprise and I lost an hour of my life.  My question is does England observe daylight savings?  What about Europe, or for that matter the rest of the World?  

 Last week I was in Arizona and that state doesn't participate in the daylight savings process, so now I'm wondering who else does?

The Saskatchewan aboriginals suppress the structure of the time particles due to their Lakota medicine.

That makes a kind of sense...the Aboriginals always told time using the Sun...that would make it a photon based time system, less affected by tachyon effects. :)

.....They have decided to wait until next year if they vote it in, instead of June 5th like they were planning, at least that's the latest I heard.


...they got it wrong when they voted George Dubbl-ya in...
...so what's different...?

...sorry, Lads... ;).... ;D...!

LOL...!

Quiet now, you might show people how I left the Alpha Centauri System.

The women were so beautiful there.
