So on 12/31/16 at midnight UTC, clocks leap forward 1 second.
And on 1/20/17, they fall back 50 years? Is this why I’m recently hearing radio ads for gourmet food with a 20 year shelf life? Bomb shelter supplies? Doesn’t it make more sense to just rotate the stock of non perishable food in your pantry, and isn’t that already a common Mormon practice? This talks about a 3 month supply: https://www.lds.org/topics/emergency-preparedness Oh, and CNN had an interview the other day with one of my favorite politicians, Adam Kinzinger, who represents most of my WISP service area. He pointed out that Russia is not the Soviet Union, and we should maybe not treat them as an equal like during the cold war, and that Putin is trying to push us around like one of their former satellite states, and it’s overdue for us to push back. I like his characterization of Russia as a gas can with an economy the size of Italy. http://edition.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/1612/29/cg.02.html From: Af [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Chuck McCown Sent: Saturday, December 31, 2016 11:37 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [AFMUG] OT: Will DJT be president It will be an interesting year for sure.
