I haven't been watching any TV, just DVD movies so didn't see the notice about the time change. Plus my alarm clock I found out was still set at the year 2005 (factory setting) as I replaced the battery backup and had unplugged the clock so lost all my programming. It wasn't until I came down to read a few emails that I saw the notice on AOL News. Almost was late to the Sunday meeting. Our congregation was a bit lacking as others had forgotten to change their's too. Have reset my clock to the correct year and date so I'm good for when it changes in the Fall. This clock changes automatically for me. Have 3 radio/clocks like that in the house.......Thank Goodness.

It was amusing in church Sunday morning at the beginning of the service when the minister went through the ritual of announcing that people who were there must have remembered to set their clocks ahead, but he really should have said something 50 minutes into the service when all the people who forgot to set their clocks ahead arrived.
