Some Compare Problem To Y2K Bug
POSTED: 6:46 am EDT August 8, 2005
NEW YORK -- Just when you thought it was safe to stop worrying about Y2K, some technology experts are warning that we might need to be on our toes once the U.S. starts switching to daylight-saving time earlier than usual.
The switch is to come in 2007, in keeping with a law President George W. Bush plans to sign Monday extending daylight hours as an energy-saving measure.
One thing it might mean is that your VCR or DVR may record shows an hour late. It may also affect cell-phone calling plans, especially if billing is based on what time calls are made.
As was the case with Y2K, there is disagreement over how serious the problem will be.
Some observers say any effects from the change will be small, since it only affects the time a device operates, rather than pose the risk of it crashing altogether.
