Daylight Savings Time Daylight Savings Time
I have never liked daylight savings time. And it is worse a bit for me because I pop back and forth between CO and AZ. But I think I would rather do what the rest of the country is doing, right or wrong here. Girlfriend in AZ has to switch from having her parents in NV in the same time zone to having me there, as I am now in CO.

But since I have to reset all the clocks here in CO, it is a good time to synchronize my computer with NIST before setting my watch. After all, it is important to have the exact right time, down to the millisecond, when you are setting a watch like this one (Movado) that only has one mark on its face.

NIST (nist.gov, and nist.time.gov) seem a bit overloaded right now. Wonder why?

In any case, I started getting compulsive about setting my watch, and then my computers, after sharing an office with a former Navy pilot. Once a week he would call up for universal time, and we would set our watches. And then I discovered that I could do it from my computer. Pre-Internet, the programs would attempt to estimate the modem delay between you and the NIST servers. Nowdays, it is even easier.

Back to daylight savings time - since I take my laptop back and forth between MDT and MST, I need to remember to reset the time zone (AZ has its own timezone in Windows), which I sometimes forget to do.
