Big Change Coming -- March 11th

My manager, Judith Alignan passed this on to the associates in our office, and I felt it worthwhile to pass on to the rest of you.  It is truly earth-shattering news, that will change the way we do business:

 

In 2007, daylight saving time will begin at 2:00 a.m. On March 11 and end at 2:00 a.m. On November 4.

"This is bound to take a lot of people in the United States by surprise. Starting in 2007, daylight-saving time begins on Sunday, March 11--not the first Sunday in April as has been the case for 20 year. When you weren't paying attention in August 2005, Congress changed the law to lengthen daylight-saving time by four weeks. Why? So we can save energy. And instead of going back to standard time the last Sunday in October, we'll now "fall back" on the first Sunday in November, which is Nov. 4.

Your computer (provided the software is fairly current) and cell phone should both update automatically since they get that information from the Internet and service providers' networks respectively. Still, Microsoft has already issued a warning for users of its older products, including Windows XP SP1 and Windows NT4, th! as the clocks will have to be updated manually."
