Hi,

Does anyone know when or if the amercians put their clocks forward an hour as by my calculations, New York is now 6 hours behind? Am i just being dumb?

Yep. They put their clocks forward one week later in the spring, but put them back at the same time as us.

Typical American!!!

Here are two free applications that’ll automatically keep you up-to-date:

Sunclock, which you can also use as a screensaver:

And, the Atomic Clock which you can use to set the time and date on your machine:
