Noooooooooooo! That changes as well.

You are confusing UTC/GMT with the time used in the UK. While the usual time
used in England, Wales and Scotland is the same as GMT, in the summer they
switch to BST (British Summer Time).

Didn't the switch from BST to GMT take place last weekend (October
25)? He is as correct about this as he is about his self-appointed
title of 'Ace'.

You dont have better things to do than pulling on chains.

Of course I do! I can listen to the radio AND yank chains as well!

Lare is wrong (a condition he is not unfamiliar with).
But then, it's the weekend, and well, you know, he
sorta...ahem...shall we say, sometimes gets a little too friendly
with that fire water.

Or, on the other hand...he could be saying it "tongue in cheek",
trying to fish in the newbies. ;-)

Your pick.

And Lare, the dxDufus, is STILL wrong. GMT/UTC does N-O-T change. Sorry,
boy, you can't tap dance your way outta this.

This bogus info from a dufus who proclaims himself to be a dx'ing "ace".

So me pointing out that you are spreading BOGUS, patently wrong
"information" makes me a "crybaby"?

Sure. Whatever you say, dxDufus.

Keep on tap dancin', boy!

Not a big surprise...

The dxDufus normally lives in a state of confusion. Anyway, you would
think one who has been in the game as long as Lare and who claims to be
an "ace" wouldn't make such a basic error.

Hmmm...maybe that means he's NOT such an "ace".

Chains are not the only thing the DX ACE yanks... He won't be able to
read the dial on his radio soon!
