    No, in these cases we ignore DST. Baby A is the oldest and first one. when DST is reset, this will all solve up.

    There is UTC.

    Yep, gotta use timezones. The first kid was born at 1:32AM PDT, the second kid at 1:06 AM PST. Thus the first kid is still older, not the second.

    It’s just bad reporting, an opportunity to educate the public about timezones and DST has been missed.

    Or, as mentioned by Collector, if you use UTC then it’s also not ambiguous.

    Ugh. Lousy daylight savings! Of course the first one out is older!

    Hah! I imagine years of sibling rivalry over this subject!

    Although the time recorded may show that, in no way Allison could be older. Time never moves backwards but man has their own way of defining time… I think we should just just keep it as Peter being 34 min older…

    That’s as silly as saying a college student who was born on February 29th is only five years old. The first one to leave the womb is the oldest, of course! Clock time is just an artificial construct anyway.

    Dayum, I could rant for hours on this. I hate hate hate daylight savings. People please, if you need the light, change your damn schedule.

    The answer is obvious. Whoever thought this one up— had too much TIME on their hands…
    They need to get a life.

    We appreciate all of the time you all have spent thinking of our new family. We did not mean to ruffle any feathers just thought it was kinda neat. We love our kids and want the best for them. I am sure they will enjoy the story when they are older. As for those who thought it was a pointless waste of time to mention this exciting event, you need to get a life. Spend some more time with your family and let them know you love them instead of spending your time on the computer commenting about other people more interesting lives.
