Not to get too off-topic but, has anyone else notice the time on the posts suddenly jumped an hour ahead around lunchtime today?

Hopefully tomorrow, we can see some of the teal-colored spine supporting the main drop goin in.

If your times are displaying wrong, make sure "Summer Time/DST is in effect:" is set to "No" in your Control Panel.

Look at that. Thanks. (Figured that would be automatic. No worries. All is good now.) Lifting another piece into place and C.J. is moving again.

It annoys me that I can't force it from the server end, but it makes sense because not everywhere has DST.

More track has been added, they have the really slanted support at the bottom of the first drop in. Its crazy how far apart the two pieces of track are.
