Self-adjusting clocks
Yesterday, North Americans sprung forward, turned their clocks ahead one hour and bid goodbye to Daylight Saving Time.
Our friends in Saskatchewan , Arizona , Hawaii and selected northern communities in Ontario , British Columbia , Quebec and Nunavut are the exceptions to the rule. They never need to adjust their clocks, because they stick to Standard Time throughout the year.
They may not shift their clocks, but I bet they end up doing extra calculations as they assess which provinces or states are now back in sync with them.
Speaking of synchronization, I love it that my smartphone, computer and satellite TV automatically switched over to Standard Time. Now, if only all of the other devices in our lives could self-adjust the time for us.
Imagine not having to reset your watch, microwave, cars, security alarm, thermostat, oven, alarm clock, etc. Wouldn’t that be
AWESOME?!?!
