Does google time start and end at 7, 8, or 9 now in the UK? Is what I am really asking!
From my statistic, Google seems not to change to daylight saving time like Europe today.
Daylight savings time doesn't start in the US until April 2.
Still perplexed by the logic behind cutting an inch off one end of a blanket only to sew it to the other end
The blanket shrinks & grows of its own accord. You move it down in winter to keep your feet warm. You pull it over your head in summer so you can have lots of fun underneath the covers (so I'm told :-)).
To summarise, with reference to Google and daylight saving:-
Due to the fact the US has failed to elect a competent president two times in the row, the right to self governance has lapsed and makes the treaty of independance null and void. The US will revert to being a colony of the UK, and will be governed from London.
As the former US (we will probably call is Americashire) will be governed from London, GMT will be the standard time zone across the entire USA. Therefore we Brits won't get confused by the weird time zones currently in operation. The yanks can call it Google Mean Time if they like - we won't have a tantrum and throw the toys out of the pram over it.
The timing of this will be quite soon. We can't enact this just yet as we have fallen into the same trap ourselves. As soon as we can get shot of the current incumbent of number 10 it will happen.
Anyway, the good news is that Americashire will probably be made part of the EU, and treated the same as other new mebmers. IE forced to contribute large amounts of money with no say in how it's spent. Mainly on supporting the major beneficiary of the CAP.
Won't it make life easier?
On the bright side, you'd be able to get decent food in a pub.
The French, aka Normans, could make a similar argument... and reclaim Britain.
It's on the cards...
