It's that time again in North America [telecom]

Here in North America we will leave standard time and will adjust our time one hour ahead for daylight saving (no S) time at 02:00 Sunday 7 March 2010.

There still are a few telephone numbers where you can get the time of day (and sometimes local temperature and even a short weather forecast.) The numbers I have are the following:

Appleton, WI 920 734-0123 Baltimore MD 410 844-1234 Boston MA 617 637-1234 (also 617 NERVOUS) Chattanooga TN 423 265-1411 Washington DC 202 844-1234 Houston TX 713 755-7171 (installed by Harris County gov) OKC OK 405 599-1234 Orlando FL 407 646-3131 Portland ME 207 775-4321 US Naval Observatory 202 762-1401* WWV CO 303 499-7111* WWVH HI 808 335-4363*
