[In large parts of the US, daylight savings time comes into effect tonight, before dawn of the first Sunday in April.]
I just discovered I have to reset 8 clocks and one watch tonight. That does not count the two `atomic' clocks I have that are set by radio signals;
You just *think* that's why they are called that. They are really emitting radiation intended to make you sterile.
nor does it count my computers' clocks, which are supposed to reset themselves.
VCR(s)? Radio(s)? Answering machine(s)? FAX machine(s)? Microwave oven? Dashboard clock(s) in car(s)? Automatic date/time stamp?
Now that I think about it, I even have a bookmark which has a digital clock on it . . .
I never realized I had so many clocks -- it is amazing. When I was young, my father set the big kitchen clock, which I will set tonight, his and my mother's wrist watches, and an alarm clock. That was it. A grand total of four.
Generally, I am in favor of technological progress; but sometimes I wonder ....
Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is? Does Anybody Really Care? Maru
