Does My Friend Know Something We Don't?

This was posted by my friend as her Facebook status today. Wondering if she knows something we don't. ;o)

This Sunday (November 6) at 2:00 a.m., Daylight Savings Time will end. The good news is that we get an extra hour of sleep when we turn our clocks back. (The official time for turning clocks back is 2:00 a.m.) On the day that DST ends, we have two 2:00 – 3:00 a.m.’s; on the day that DST starts we do not have a 2:00 – 3:00 a.m. at all.

Here’s something cool … twins born a few minutes apart on the day DST ends can (apparently) have their birth order changed. If Baby A is born at 1:59 a.m. on Saturday, November 6 and Baby B is born 7 minutes later, officially Baby B’s birth time is 1:06 a.m. that same day.

Just in case you’re interested, when DST starts, twins born a few minutes apart can appear to be born an hour apart. If Baby A is born at 1:59 a.m. and Baby B is born 7 minutes later, officially Baby B’s birth time is 3:06 a.m.
