I vote to ditch DST as well.  However, my TAM v9.4 did NOT run asupdate today.  I've never seen it do that on a time change, but you all mentioned versions 10+.

I cannot recall if it's every station or just the 1st to log in after clocks change - but I do remember it running after each time change.  I logged in via Term Server last night and it ran - I am sure that was the only log in after the time change and before this a.m.

I would like to stay on DST.  Once we "spring forward" I enjoy the extra daylight.  I think we need to just leave it here.  The only good thing about falling back is the very first morning you get an extra hour of sleep and that's it.  Nothing else is good about it (at least that I can think of right now - but I do reserve the right to change my mind  ;))

I just want to stay on what ever is normal.  Are we on normal time right now, or are we off by an hour?  I don't even know! lol

Often seems like ASCNet assumes "normal" is Central.
Time is a subjective issue - other than having to make contact with London, and the tv schedule, I don't worry about it much.
It's an issue though when some channels move their programs alons with DST (the major channels), but others don't (like Comedy Central) - makes it hard to track down the "Daily Show"!

Mark

Lance, I am in central.  I just meant what is the normal time?  When we spring forward or fall back?  Who is in Central time and does NOT use DST?  What time is it by you? lol

Mark - I think you're saying "normal" is whatever time it was before DST started...ever.  Yes? Nothing to do  ASCnet I think...

Yes.  No clue how ASCnet came up, but no worries :)  Just want to know when I'm on real time and not fake, made up time.   Who controls TIME?  I call BS on them! ;)

I'm confused what's normal too.  I would keep it like this all the time.   I enjoy dark mornings and longer days.   I think every notion used to create DST no longer applies today, including saving energy.  All bunk..   Just a pita inconvenience.   Last year or year before that some country opted out of DST.   I think most would today if put to a vote.

I believe DST is the "fake" time - what we just switched to.  As in CDT - Central Daylight Time.

"Normal" time is in the winter - CST - Central Standard Time.

That being said who decided what is "normal?"  Probably the same wonderful politicians.  I agree with Lance that it is all relative and I'd like to have more evening daylight even in the winter.

But then again I live in the South and this may not be agreeable to the Yankees and Canucks, so I'll let them chime in for themselves  :D

Let Canada keep it then..   ;)

When it's dark out you tend to feel like this.
