*thread shocked back to life* since this timer i'm writing is based on NSDate, it's effected if the computer's clock is manually changed... that i don't mind, because who really need to ever manually set their clock on the computer... however, i'm concerned that if (probably when) my timer is running during a daylight savings shift it will add/subtract an hour... i guess there's no avoiding this? or maybe apple took this into account and therefore currently running code is not effected by a daylight savings shift?
NSDate has no concept of timezone or daylight savings. It purely represents an exact point in time so will keep running, unaffected as long as the change is only to daylight savings.
