Happy Saturday! I found out why the auto's clock was a day off.

Damn DST adjustment.
The time and date are manually set.
Everything was FINE.

But the year was off by 10 years.
I really am living in the Twilight Zone.



Oops, wrong zone.

You know, I'll go back to that car and see if I can make it into a time machine and undo a little 2016 mishap.
Unusual things have been happening lately.
A change in the system software? Hope so.

But I printed and pasted this display over some incredibly meaningless and annoying warning lights.



The auto techs at the dealer's were impressed.

It's still there!
