Daylight Saving Time: Why Did We Do It?


At 2:00 a.m. local on Sunday, most of the United States (except Hawaii and Arizona) will leave daylight saving time behind and fall back an hour to standard time.


The annoyance of resetting clocks (or forgetting to, and showing up an hour early for appointments on Sunday) may raise the question of why we bother with this rigmarole in the first place.

Yippee...So, I can count this as 7 pm, not 8 pm.

Thanks for the reminder.

Yes, if you are in the Central Time Zone!

Re: Don't Forget to Set Your Clocks Back
 

Yes, ma'am, I am.

"Who Knows Where the Time Goes"

Across the morning sky,
All the birds are leaving,
Ah, how can they know it's time for them to go?
Before the winter fire,
We'll still be dreaming.
I do not count the time.

Who knows where the time goes?
Who knows where the time goes?

Sad deserted shore,
Your fickle friends are leaving,
Ah, but then you know it's time for them to go,
But I will still be here,
I have no thought of leaving.
I do not count the time.

Who knows where the time goes?
Who knows where the time goes?

And I'm not alone,
While my love is near me,
And I know,it will be so,till it's time to go,
So come the storms of winter ,
and then the birds in spring again.
I do not fear the time.

Who knows how my love grows?
Who knows where the time goes?

I'd like to knock whoever thought of this time changing business in the head. I hate this!!

I think we should leave it alone- Leave it at daylight savings.

Don't we gain a hour of sleep ?
