I note that the AD web site still has me in the Eastern Time Zone, but lists me an hour later than it actually is. Right now in Ohio, it is 4:53 PM, but AD has me listed as 5:53 PM! Didn't the server compensate for the recent time change???

You have to change the setting yourself. Go into my controls then board settings and then adjust the time.

In My Controls, Board Settings, I have currently listed "Eastern Time" and the box is checked for "automatically...DST". This setting is unchanged from before. AD shows me at Noon, but local time is 11:00 AM. ??

I read something that says my nightmare will be worse next year - the time change starts even earlier and ends later. Mid March through Mid November. Basically 8 months of my bio-rhythms off kilter and only 4 good months per year. I really don't care that it's dark earlier at night. After the time change, it's pitch black in the morning and I have to be up an hour earlier than my body likes. It's brutal for a night person.

Huh? I consider myself a "night person," and it's never pitch black when I get around to waking up in the morning. wink.gif

And since I wake up so late from being up into the early hours, I really do appreciate the extra hours of daylight. I'm all for extending daylight saving time! banana.gif
