Hey, Dave,

All I want to know is: "Am I reading this message yesterday, today or
tomorrow?".  Talk about back to the future!

Jack

Hi Sheri!

No issue there.

I'm in Dunedin, New Zealand, where it is glorious summer time!

If you need to reach me, I have a WV US phone number that allows me to be
reachable. You're welcome to share it with anyone that needs it.

My number is 1 304-756-8133.

It is considered a WV call to anyone dialling it.

The only thing to remember is that the time here is currently 18 hours ahead
of you, so I'm writing this at 1:43 pm Tuesday which is only 7:43 pm
yesterday over on your side.

This difference will change in March when you change, and again in April
when we change. Each time it changes, the difference shrinks by an hour so
that after both changes happen, we'll only be 16 hours apart. That sounds
nice, but theories are always nice. *lol* In practice, a 16 hour split makes
scheduling things a bit more demanding on the sleep schedule. *lol*

Consider in the 16 hour split, your 4 pm is my 8 am the next morning. *lol* 

Of course, there is advantage in a 16 hour split because if someone actually
wants a call at 7 am, I don't need to burn the midnight oil to accomplish
that during your summer, but wouldn't want to do that during your winter.
Ain't the world an amazing place?

Cheers,
Dave
