I figure this is always a good time to confuse people about shortwave.
The US goes back to daylight savings time this sunday at 2am. Europe I
think does it the first week in April. Who knows about the rest of the
world.

This will be interesting to see how the broadcasters adjust to this.
Do they maintain UTC time? Do they follow the US time switch? Do they
follow the European time switch? Or do they do what they do now, which
is total unpredictability and chaos??


Unpredictability and chaos!! Instead of what once was the "week of
confusion" we now have the "weeks of confusion" where schedules are
all jumbled up due to time changes, and everyone drifts about as if
in a dream.


I predict 4 years of increasing confusion as the abomination finds out
his liberal socialist ideas don't work.

I'm sure you have noticed that the Russians didn't take him up on his
defense roll over offer. Why should the russians go for a deal 90% in
their favor when they can get 100% out of that pussy we have for
president.

And Clintoon has done a bang up job with the Chinese begging them to
keep on buying USA debt not to mention the brewing fiasco in the middle
east.
