    If you cross the international dateline you change days depending on which way you travel. It is tomorrow in Australia.

    That I know. Sbf and I chat daily. He lives in Adelaide and is 17 hours ahead of me in Hemet, California now. When we spring forward he will be 18  hours ahead I think though time-wise different parts of Australia have different time zones and they are not by the HOUR. They are by the half-hour in certain cases which I think is nuts! Thank you for your reply ye whose name cannot be spoken. Is that Russian or Hebrew or Egyptian or Sanskrit or didja make it up? How does one pronounce it, the one being me and the it being those chicken scratches after "99"? Thank you for your reply and Happy Saturday!  :)
