Re: Turning the clocks back
It looks as if one of the administrators changed the setting for "Summer/DST in effect" to "No," but that changed my offset from Pacific (-8) to Mountain Time (-7). I assume everyone else's went East by an hour, too. If so, you should correct your offset, as the Summer/DST setting will already be correct.MarleysGh0st wrote:Speaking of turning clocks back...

Pea, just hang on until December 21st when the days begin to shorten. Then it's all downhill til spring!

Re: Turning the clocks back
I believe the sunsets actually start getting later in early December... so if it's early darkness you dread, your wait isn't as long as you think....peacock2121 wrote:I can do it.Beebs52 wrote:Pea, just hang on until December 21st when the days begin to shorten. Then it's all downhill til spring!

I can do it.
The sunrises will continue to get later though until early January.
It's a weird lag thing I was unaware of until just a few years ago and verified through experience last year.....

I usually wake up to darkness. I actually like being awake as the sun rises. I do not enjoy the early sunsets.littlebeast13 wrote:I believe the sunsets actually start getting later in early December... so if it's early darkness you dread, your wait isn't as long as you think....peacock2121 wrote:I can do it.Beebs52 wrote:Pea, just hang on until December 21st when the days begin to shorten.

Re: Turning the clocks back
I think it should get light around 6:15 and get dark around 9 pm. I think I need to move to the equator or something. It can never be bright enough or hot enough for me!

Re: Turning the clocks back
lb is right. December 21st is the day with the least sunlight but the sunset starts getting later around December 9. Sunrises don't start getting earlier until January 8.

I'll take the hamburger! My purse is full of Snickers, Baby Ruth, and Peanut M&M's I bought off of Demon Child.

A hamburger patty is part of the Hawaiian Loco Moco breakfast I ate in Waikiki! Rice with brown gravy, a hamburger, and a fried egg over easy. I recreate it sometimes when I have leftover rice and gravy from Egg Foo Young...
