It is Standard time that should be abolished, leaving perma-DST. But other than that (lol) I agree with you!

What we do is actually required by law in Canada, the States, and just about every other country. If you enter a country, and you are a citizen of that country, you are required to present your identification *from that country*. There ARE countries where doing otherwise is a serious offense; luckily, neither Canada…

Oh yes, they can shut down the interstates due to snow; in fact, there are large gates around here at every freeway entrance to keep yokels off when they’re closed.

“Hippie” trail, please. But hey, you spelled “Kombi” right. And my head was full of zombie a lot back when I had a Kombi.

That report is on the first of the month for US Bank, and on the date your next statement is issued for all the other major credit card issuers.

I’m not the person you asked, but MRIs and all NMRs use superconducting electromagnets to produce the magnetic field - the liquid helium is used to keep the electromagnets superconducting. Letting them warm up (due to cooling quenching) would stop the process.

Ophioglossum has 1260!

True - I love PR!
