     For those who read this Saturday, April 1st don't forget to compensate for daylight saving time.  However next year daylight savings time, in the United States anyway, will be observed on March 11th, thanx to a bill passed by Congress.  Additionally, it will end one week later, on Nov. 4th, instead of the usual 'last weekend in October'.

     One more note: It's a good idea to change the batteries in your home smoke detectors twice a year, and this is a good day to remember to do that.

One of our reader's submitted a good question to ponder on this Sunday, and I though I'd share that question with everyone: "what about (people) running less than currently supported (OS) versions? Are they going to be forced to change to manual adjustments?  My response was something like "... I'd disable the auto adjustment, and make a short trip into the office Sunday morning to make the manual adjustments necessary.  One could even use 'Scheulder' to write a simple script to do it for them if they were brave......" 

So, I'd like to ask you; thoughts?

(I'd like to thank Scott H. for the inspiration and insightful questions)
