Should also point out that we are all still on Daylight time, should be MDT, not MST

Oh whatever. We get the point.

TechieChick

Thank you I will be checking this out. thanks!

Thanks for catching the MDT/MST thing - I just copied and pasted without my copyeditor hat on. It was one of my pet peeves at Spiceworks when people got that wrong, so I used to send out an email to all reminding them every time daylight savings changed.

I can never keep straight what is and isn't daylight savings time. So CDT would start in the spring and end when it went back to CST in the fall? (spring forward, fall back)

Yep, we go back to ST in like 2 weeks.

Frankly I think it's time to bail on the clock change, the reasons for doing it don't really apply anymore.

And haven't for most of a century. They are actually backwards since the introduction of air conditioning and the move towards the southern states.

It's easy, use European time instead of American as the American is named backwards. In Europe it is not daylight savings but "summer time". So England just came off of "British Summer Time" or BST to go back to "Greenwich Mean Time" or GMT.

So you can always remember that Daylight time in the US is in the summer because the non-standard time in Europe is British Summer Time and European Summer Time.

That will not help me remember it at all. I'll just remember that XDT is in the summer. That I can remember.

Nic

@nadnerB probably - we usually record and post the recordings.
