Let's be honest, it made a good story and made me laugh. It's certainly an urban legend that I will be telling again and again, but it's an urban legend (i.e. somebody made it up and it's started spreading like wildfire).

It's the story of Andrew Carlssin, the so-called time traveller who made a mint on the stock market (I laughed about it last Friday for Friday Fun - didn't that say something to you?). But it was quoted on Yahoo with the origins being given as The Weekly World News. Weekly World News - that's important. It's not true.

The urban legends site has more information so you've no need to search here search anymore. Given that the clocks changed last weekend, maybe I should enter the contest to see who can save the most daylight. Now that's true - honest!

And the irony that I am having to post this on 1st April is not lost on me.
