I was happy to see Nimmo, but I squealed when I saw Dedniel Nunez. Best name on the staff, no matter what middle names Nimmo throws into the hat.

Thanks for the Summer Time update. Periodically somebody here claims we need to outlaw Daylight Savings, but that raises the question of which we would prefer: permanent Standard Time, and the sun rising at 4.00 AM in. June, or permanent Daylight, and the sun not showing until 9.00 AM come December? As nobody has answered that as yet, we stay as we are.
That's even more pronounced in Europe btw. I live in Bavaria (although the folks here sometimes pretend that Bavaria doesn't govern them, and Bavaria pretends that we don't exist), which is hardly in the north of Germany, which is hardly in the north of Europe. I'm just north of 50°N, somewhere between Winnipeg and Regina in North American terms. Even *with* summer time the sun is rising at 4:30 in the morning in June.
