There was a firmware bug in the displays that sent clocks into some unknown time zone, and there was absolutely nothing you could do to correct it.

Worse, my car had two time displays, and they didnt match. Neither was correct.

Hondas only answer was wait a year to eighteen months and the system, set by satelites, would probably reset.

These cars were all over 10 years old so no recourse. It did finally reset, but really, what a pita.

I’m very time conscious. When I wake up at night I take a guess before I look at the clock. I’m usually within 10-15 minutes.

no need to be patient with it.

Remember, any technology sufficiently advanced is indistinguishable from magic.

11. A few years back, a survey of thousands of people were asked "Do you want the clocks to stay as the actually time"

Most people who responded said (something like) "Yes...it's nice to not change the clock in the fall...let's keep the time in summer as it always was"
Oh Brother...
