This is just the tip of the iceberg come March 11. VCRs and any other
devices that can automatically adjust to daylight saving time won't set
properly unless you disable the automatic DST feature, or move to
Arizona or Hawaii.

Oh no, should I stock up on survival food because my VCR might be off
by an hour before I reset the clock?

Absolutely. I've run a vcr an hour off, and it was very disappointing
to record 6 hours of the wrong programs!

I now have 2 GE vcr's, almost the same model, which are supposed to be
able to get the time from the tv signals, and one fails entirely and
tells me to set it myself, but the other finds the time on PBS. I
wonder why the difference?
