No one reminded me either. Thank goodness that the correct time was displayed on my TWC box.

My wife told me. Fortunately we only have 2 clocks in the house and the one in the car that needed changed.

It was news to me but dh heard it when watching the local news. I'm blaming it on Halloween being on a Saturday. After having it change before Halloween for most of my life, I make it a point to remember it now changes AFTER Halloween. I thought it wouldn't change for one more week. to the sun setting around 4:30.

I wish they would do away with it entirely. It takes me a week to get used to the change, it's been that way since is was a kid.

I too was in "limbo". I kept wondering what day the time was supposed to change, heard nothing, read nothing on it. Then yesterday, my bedroom clock said one hour earlier than the two in the kitchen, so I figured, this must be it, the big time change day has occurred without any bells or whistles. Thank goodness for one clock that self-adjusts.

I moved to Indiana so that I would not have to deal with this time thing. I always want to know What time is it really? and no one will ever tell me....other than it is time to get a watch. Then we had a gov. that made us change. I totally hate it, but you are right, I did not hear a lot about changing until I looked it up......there is a Purple Martin blog???????

Aware of the time zones especially Arizona as I have a Grandson who lives there and another Grandson at U of A and part of the year we are on same time! Also Grandson in Illinois (2 hours)and Grandson in Indiana at Notre Dame (3 hours) ....these I can figure but one Grandson in the MarineCorp. recently deployed and that time and day difference is what I need a separate clock for just set for where he is (whenever I hear ).
Definitely would rather not have the daylight saving time and old enough to remember when it did not exist.

Same here never heard a word about it. I have the TV guide book marked and thought they had a major typo--the times at the top went 1 - 1:30 - then back to 1 - 1:30 - etc Still never dawned on me. For now if I need the correct time I'll check the computer or phone.

When you go into a motel in Arizona, there are two clocks on the wall. One for Arizona time and one for the other time.
