O.T.: Y2K7: Spring Forward EARLY!
People* remember, THIS weekend is the Daylight Savings Time switch. I capitalize for emphasis because this is the first year that the government has adopted a new schedule and DST begins three weeks earlier than usual. This WILL cause problems with electronic devices, so remember to check your computers, weather stations and VCRs Sunday to make sure they get the correct time. For more information on "Y2K7"** see this WikiPedia entry.
NEW! Click here (PREMIUM | PRO) to see a video about the DST change by our own Melissa McGee.
For more information on this switch, see my blog entry from last fall entitled "Fall Back: Last Time in October".
**Technically, it should be Y2.007K, extrapolated from Y2K, but I'll roll with it.
