Hi Steve, My clock was always set to the RIGHT time but for some reason
last sunday I couldn't post until I figured out (on Monday) that I had to
set it back an hour. Last weekend was the OLD time change weekend. I
turned off the automatic adjust for time change years ago, so my computer
did nothing different this past weekend. I can only assume that the AIOE
news server changed the time a week too early.

In order to post here now, I have to keep my clock set to an hour early.
Windows98 problem? Don't know but I don't know why my old software would
cause this problem since my time never changed.

Regardless, next weekend the time will officially change and I'll be posting
with authentic time once again. Posting this at 7:00 eastern officially,
but my clock is set to 6am in order to post this.

sigh!
