<DIV><FONT size=2>Janet & Greg,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> Many years ago, when I was your age, while employed in
an engineering office of the city of Chicago, I took the initiative to
correct the clocks in the office on Monday morning following the switch to
DST. Later that afternoon the official Union clock changer arrived,
noticed the corrected clocks, reported the non-Union endeavor, and almost
caused a major strike.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>Hey thanks for the Groosim Janet, would you believe the same thing happened
at my work, we have had a clock system installed run from a central server so
that all the clocks for the saudi telecom buildings are all set identically to
the same synchronised time.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>You guessed it the system was bought from the states and right on time, to
the nano second every clock in Saudi Telecom head offices adjusted themselves
perfectly for eastern standard time with daylight savings . . . . . . . of
course there is no DS ever in the kingdom . . . </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Did they Err ?</DIV>

FAMILY="SANSSERIF">I seem to be Grooing a lot more at work
lately.<BR><BR>Saturday afternoon, I decided to prove to my boss just how
efficient I was by adjusting all the clocks in the building for Daylight
Saving Time before I left for the weekend. When I sat down to my desk
this morning (Monday), I looked up at the clock above me to see I had turned
every clock BACK instead of AHEAD. This in spite of having personally
written "turn clocks ahead" in large red letters on the calendar not a week
before.<BR><BR>But the Grooing was not over. I made my rounds to
dutifully correct the error by turning all the clocks ahead an hour.
After two rounds, the clocks were back where they would have been had I just
ignored them Saturday. My "efficiency" actually required three trips
around the building. Apparently, my brains have been replaced with
cheesedip.<BR><BR>Janet</FONT>
