Hi there,
I've been wondering. Although I’m not sure on the exact times of BST changes here in the UK, suppose the clocks go back at 2AM to 1AM. What happens if you just happen to have a high powered meeting at 1:30AM in the morning? :crazy:
Also, when the clocks go forward at 1AM to 2AM, what happens to your 1:30AM meeting then? In that case it's physically impossible to turn up on time :-)
Is there any notation (In the same way as AM or PM) to show whether a time is prior or post a clock change?
On another note, I follow that seasons on this planet are due to the earths tilt relative to the sun as the earth orbits the sun. Does that mean that whilst the northern hemisphere is in winter that the southern hemisphere is in summer?
Since the event associated with Christmas took place at one finite time, then I assume that Christmas is celebrated at the same time all over the world. Does this therefore mean the countries in the southern hemisphere would celebrate Christmas in mid summer? What happens to the white Christmas? On the basis that everyone is following the same date all over the world at the same time, does this therefore mean that countries in the southern hemisphere have there summer in mid December, and winter in June/July time?
Just a few annoying questions there for you,
Hope someone could shed some light on them,
Hodgkinson.
