dianec42I note from the wikipedia article on Daylight Saving Time that the US is going to extend DST *even more* in 2007. What lunacy! I swear we're doing it on purpose just to see if Europe will follow us over this new cliff.
It's bad enough I have to wake up in the dark for a few weeks a year (especially at this latitude!). Now they want to make people even sleepier and grumpier! Oh yes, that'll help. Blech.
(As an aside, I love how the article pedantically points out that "daylight savings time" with the extra 's' is technically incorrect, then goes on to use the phrase itself at least once. I (heart) Wikipedia.)
