In other words Spring ahead!! Jerry "And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years." A.

All of a sudden you would realize that the border was closing an hour early! It happened a few times where someone got caught out and didn't make it to one side before closing only to try to go back and find that point had closed an hour earlier..

So, if I have this right, at 2:00am, it will really be 3:00am, and there won't be a 2:01am this morning, right? UGH!

But I did get up at 3 am yesterday and worked a 10 hour day, and a 12 hour workday the previous, doing a 64 hour week, so that might have something to do with it. My boss asked if the clocks in England were set forward and backwards, and I couldn't remember, but I said no, they don't (and she said they don't in Germany either). But we did agree on one thing, that it seems to be an out-of-date practice that doesn't make sense to do anymore.

I take it you mean Alt-Right and Nazi Sympathizers? Or people who are against the abolition of slavery? The ARYANS have attempted to hijack this term to use against progressives and those opposing Fascism. Interesting.
