Ugh. I actually forgot, but most of the clocks in my home change automatically.
Time doesn't change here. Life is led at a slower pace.

Oh... you were talking about the US? It affects how I interact with WDC. Now 12 will = 12, flip the am and pm.
Nope. No time changes here. Well, except Baja and some of the border states. Here in the Yucatan, we live perpetually on Mexican Time. *Laugh*
