Better than nothing. But in the U.S. lots of people are learning ESPN time. Maybe it will result in a country like China with one time zone. Your solution gets rid of most of our (in this forum) problems of Daylight Savings Time (although not the fact that nothing is saved). We still have report times with overlapping times in the fall, even if time-date stamps are accurate. I wish my clock radios have a button on it that synchronized the clock to whichever station it was tuned to. Maybe put a radio in my Microwave oven to set its clock. And when power is restored after a black-out, re-set the clock. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
