Your first sentence states that you think 2015 and newer cars have clocks that change automatically.
Your second sentence says almost the exact same thing - correct? If your car is a 2015 or newer it may change automatically.
Your third sentence says almost the exact same thing - It can probably change automatically, or manually.
I can definitely see that you are trying your best to post longer and longer posts - hysterical.

Just the act of touching the car diminshes it.
I had a leaking/detached coolant hose, yes, it was touched due to the accident.
I had a leaking/detached wiper fluid hose, yes, it was touched due to the accident.
I had a dead low beam bulb, yes, it was replaced due to the accident.
2 out of 3 of those might have occurred regardless, but I'm in the camp that says these problems are why DV is inherent in any major repair. Headaches, unknowns.... limitless potential for pain.

Now I fuss over wattage equivalent, true watt usage, temperature of the light in Kelvin, and is it DIMMABLE or not.
After about a year, I've got it down as far as what I like and don't like.

Switching subjects, my Ford has been in the garage a long time this winter and although I backed it out in the driveway twice just to keep the battery charged it's sat longer this winter because of the frequent snow storms. I put some Stabil in before storing it but I wonder if I should add some injector cleaner when (or if ) the roads ever clear of salt.
Techtron comes to mind but would you guys reccommend something else?

Yes, I agree with you. Now, you pay a lot more up front for bulbs, but they should last a long time and save electric consumption. Lumens and light temperature are 2 big considerations. Dimmable could be a whole other fish fry.
Yeh, we'll get JMonroe to explain it and that should put us all to sleep.

I’ve got a shelf full of bulbs we hate.
It’s just nuts. So easy before. 40, 60, 75 or 100. Done.

If it's down 2 or 3 gallons from full from idling to charge up, just replace those with fresh fuel. I
do that with my small motors. I use Stabil if I don't run them empty in the fall. Then I put in fresh
fuel days before I try to start them. The fresh fuel dissolves any sediment that might affect the carburetors.

Light bulbs, I hate them now. I am trying to nurse my (almost gone) supply of old fashioned ones as long as possible, but I do have a couple of packs of LEDs my wife bought. Using one in my office desk lamp. Used to it by now, but I did notice the difference. Not as bright (since IIRC the old one was a 100 watt). No clue about the color or style of the bulb. I think we have some in the hall bathroom now?
but, not many other places I can use them. Family room is all 3 ways, so not there. Kitchen is recessed, and I am not spending $200 to replace all them before one burns out. Master bath uses small base candelabras I think.

Since the market has been recovering we can now go to more upscale places, like JM.

Meanwhile, an old coworker reached out to me on Thursday wondering if I'd be interested in being a freelance editor at his new company. I start tomorrow. Unfortunately, it means trekking to NYC twice a week for the next several weeks, but gotta do what ya gotta do. They are nice enough to agree to let me work from home the other days and probably more often after we are aquainted. It is certainly good money.

how does working a job go while also taking a course? And more important, what are you planning to teach?

We've been married since 1981 and have 3 wonderful kids. Funny, didn't want to go hear John Dean but my friends got me a ticket and said I'd try to make it. Guess G-d had different plans for me, us, as I did go, and the rest is history! So yes, FAU has had a big impact in all our lives at Casa Sandman.

Good luck QB, you have accomplished a lot in a short amount of time. Changing jobs and careers frequently is becoming the new normal....I was ahead of my time (as usual

My Dad was in the Signal Corps during WWII and served as a “cryptologist” and “cryptographer”. He was in charge of a group of 15 men stationed just behind enemy lines in northern France and southern Belgium where he oversaw the decoding and encoding of highly sensitive messages.
During the “Battle of the Bulge”, his unit ended up BEHIND ENEMY LINES because of the surprise speed of the encroaching German forces. That’s how he earned his Bronze and Silver Stars by singlehandedly taking out several machine gun nests and mortar batteries that were killing men in his unit.
As for your library book out of FAU, shame on you!

Good news on the job front. Working from home is great. I sneak a few days a month in and I get so much more done. It's funny, my team can always tell when I'm not in the office by the amount of emails (more)!

My sister is also a Montessori teacher in Ohio and while she took a sabbatical until my niece is in kindergarten next fall, she plans to return and is hoping to start off subbing in their home district before moving back to full time. She also finds it very rewarding and finds it gratifying to see her students succeed. I give you a lot of credit for making a career change....I can't say I would be as bold to do the same after almost 13 years in the same field.
My sister is going into teaching soon, I think starting next year. She was a GM at a local daycare chain, but got burnt out, and had a medical issue that made her slow down and think about things. She'll be in special ed, which is another one where there's probably a shortage of talent.

I doubt that I would have ever been allowed to teach, especially 5 th grade, since that was the worst 3 years of my life.

The most harrowing student I had (among many harrowing students) was a lady who lived in my small college town. Her husband was a prof in the school of business, who I had for 3 quarters of stats. So we knew each other.
I'm guessing she was in her mid 30s as her husband was about the same age and had just become tenured shortly after he did is dissertation.
He had been trying to teach his wife to drive for a decade, and grew so frustrated, he quit trying. He said he'd give me a $50 bonus (I was making $75/student if they passed their driving test). That was big money for me at the time.
She had some sort of issue that caused her to drift to the left. I personally thought it was a form of vertigo, but I don't think she or her husband thought it was a physical malady. All they knew is she couldn't keep the car in her lane, barely missing oncoming traffic. She had 6 lessons with me. In each one of them I had to take over the wheel and/or use my brake because she was going to hit someone.
After many tears (some of them coming from me), I painted a small line on her side of the left part edge of the windshield. I told her to keep her eye on the line of the windshield and aim the car with the windshield line just to the right of the lane markers. After a couple more lessons, she got the hand of it.
She passed. I got the extra $50, and she made me the best banana bread I've ever eaten to this day. I had heard she wrecked my profs Volvo 240 a month or two after she passed her test, though.
