    That's fucked up. Now I look like a dummy. Well, it's not that I usually don't look like one anyway, but I really don't need extra help from you!!

    Not to mention, I've only had 4 cups of coffee thus far. Give a guy a break on his writing when he's running on empty!

    Not really a concern for me at present. We're currently on GMT. We'll change to BST (British Summertime) fairly soon - not quite sure when.

    There will be those who say that changing is a waste ... just as they do when we go to GMT. Makes absolutely no difference to what ACTUALLY happens, though.

    I went on a cadet cruise on a 378 back in the day, went to England, Germany and Denmark

    During the passage we seemed to cross the "lose and hour" times during the mid-watch.

    And if we gained time, it seemed to be during the normal work day

    The Captain noted this also when he sent his report in, expounding on how he saved the Coast Guard "X" many man hours
    Every day I beat my previous record of consecutive days I've stayed alive.
