The "Hughtrain"

[libertango]

Imagine Ashleigh Brilliant getting together with Bill Rotsler, with a big chunk of Doc Searls' DNA thrown in. You'd get the cartoon blog gapingvoid, by Hugh MacLeod.

The one Doc pointed to, that caught my eye:

1. Nature abhors a vacuum.

2. Cluetrain abhors a Gatekeeper.

Right on! Fight the power!

You're right. I just tend to forget, since (barring Arizona, and parts of Indiana [this year] everyplace else here [and oddly, in Iraq] engages in the silliness which is Daylight Saving Time).

Oh, the UK is on daylight saving time at present. But Greenwich Mean Time isn't affected, even though that means that Greenwich itself is not on GMT for seven months of the year.

I know, what I forget is that GMT is a constant.

The fact of it is, since I have reports to write which require being annotated to the letter code of the timezone the events described took place, I have to keep track of that (right now I'm in S, even though, on a map I live in T).

But, since I wasn't working, I just went by my mental default (i.e. I live in GMT -8) and didn't further ponder.

Heh. I have a watch with a regular clockface and an overlaid digital display. Because of the ease of changing the digital, that's the one I switch when I travel or DST starts or ends.

I finally decided to just set the hands to GMT and leave them there.
