Countdown ignored the change in time.
My countdown is now an hour slow. Not a big deal but it appears the system does not observe DST.
 Now if only the rest of the country were as smart.

Re: Countdown ignored the change in time.
That's interesting. I never really look at the hours. I usually don't have any idea exactly when we are leaving so I just pick a random time.

Re: Countdown ignored the change in time.
My DW says I am too schedule conscious. At least she did until she watched Airline and saw all those people missing their flights because they were late.

Re: Countdown ignored the change in time.
they moved the week up so perhaps the system does not recognize it because it was not origionally supposed to move for another week- They did this for energy conservation-giving people more possible daylight

Re: Countdown ignored the change in time.
I've hated it for the last year. We used to have brains in Indiana and leave time alone but we had to keep up with the rest of the country. This whole thing is something that outlived its usefulness.

Re: Countdown ignored the change in time.
I guess I'm in the minority. I love that the time has changed, now we have more time to be outside in the evenings. Makes a huge difference in our lives!

Re: Countdown ignored the change in time.
Hmm. My countdown is still correct. Maybe I had it wrong the first time.
