Ferret Posted October 4, 2022 Report Share Posted October 4, 2022 Works for me! However, my dogs hate it when the clocks go back in the fall and I have to do the meal change in 15 minute increments to get them adjusted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickS Posted October 4, 2022 Report Share Posted October 4, 2022 .... and the US is considering staying on DST all the time.  People on the border will have to deal with the 'discrepancy'. Personally, at our latitude in Colorado DST all the time works best for me.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big YYEESSS from this house..... 🤩 Where did you see that this has passed everywhere? The most recent article that I can find is a week old and final voting hadn't happened ( partial vote slated for tomorrow, 5 October).  Here is what I found: The bill – which proposes a new Time Zones Law – will now be considered by all 500 deputies, with debate and a vote slated to be held Wednesday. If it passes the Chamber of Deputies, the bill will face a vote in the Senate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natasha Posted October 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2022 My husband saw it on FB this morning. Following copied from what HE copied. It's all over! Goodbye to the time change! This coming October 30, 2022, the schedule will be changed to your watch for the last time (after 26 years), which will be fixed schedule, God's schedule and there will no longer be Daylight Savings Time. This October 30th will be the change of time, where, your watch will be delayed by one hour and will be the last time you will do it again, because, there will no longer be a change of Summer Time.. Newspaper in Puerto Vallarta 4 days ago seemed to be certain it will be done deal. I thought I heard it mentioned in Guad TV news this a.m. but they are still         carrying on a great length over the Sunday "incident" at /near Plaza Andares so I had it sort of half tuned out. I WOULD go on n+mas.mx but they won't let me disable tracking cookies .........    At the bank today the teller seemed to believe it was confirmed too. If I'm premature, I'm sorry. AMLO is determined this will go thru (source of the "God's" schedule remark he's used for quite a while) so I think we can pretty much count these chickens, even if the shells aren't fully opened yet. At least I HOPE so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artsnob Posted October 5, 2022 Report Share Posted October 5, 2022 What has happened near Plaza Andares, I was going there this Friday... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEWMtnMama Posted October 5, 2022 Report Share Posted October 5, 2022 I'm glad now that our "Atomic" clock broke. It would automatically sync with the Bureau of Standards clock that used to be in Boulder CO. That would have been most inconvenient. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What happened Sunday should have no bearing on this coming Friday unless you normally travel in autos blindados con guardaespaldas 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Natasha Posted October 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2022 Found in L. A. Times newspaper dated Sept 29..... talking about how the Chamber has already passed it with HUGE majority..and more. (see italics) "...Con 445 votos a favor, ocho en contra y 33 abstenciones.......... El Senado discutirá en los próximos dÃas la iniciativa legislativa que de aprobarse podrÃa entrar en vigencia a finales del próximo mes.    ".... with 445 votes in favor, 8 against, and 33 abstentions..........The Senate will debate the legislative initiative in the following few days and if approved could come into force at the end of next month (meaning October 2022).    So I'm still pretty confident this is a done deal.

TImes article, it began with".....La Cámara de Diputados aprobó el jueves la eliminación del horario de verano...."   "The Chamber approved the elimination of DST ( as we know it) on Thursday (meaning Sept 29)    I guess we'll know when we know........
