L.A.I hope they won't follow the example here and turn the signals off too. Those sequences of beeps every 30 minutes are how I keep track of the time in the morning so that I can leave home on time and not miss the train. #Radio #TimeSignal

But as of Monday, #CBC Radio One audiences won't be listening for the beginning of the #LongDash — they'll have listened to the end of it.”
Chris Alemany🇺🇦🇨🇦🇪🇸The beginning of the long dash indicates 10AM Pacific Daylight Time.
Or at least it did for 80 years... until yesterday. It makes sense why they decided it was time... to stop.
And yes, out of pure serendipity, I tried to send this at exactly 10:00:00AM :)
My laptop clock is within a second of the NRC web clock :)
