Daylight savings sucks because it takes away an hour of bartime.
You must admit, returning two hours in the fall really makes up for this one though.

in the US (except arizona, hawaii and parts of indiana) they decided that it would be better if the sun set later in the day during the main growing season (it was originally a farming thing). so the first weekend of april, they change all the clocks by setting them ahead one hour. it happens specifically at 2 am on the first saturday of april. then the first saturday of november they set them back. i personally think it's retarded but that's the way things are.

It must be an April Fool's joke. Let's all move our clocks back to where they were. Bastards!

Just wondering... couldn't change the time manually, as we do? It's quite annoying really

Interesting Here it's quite different though - they do it so in the warmer season (there's no cold season really ) there's no energy peaks and people don't turn the lights/fans/air conditioners on all at the same time (when they come back from work or whatever).

Worst thing is is that my timezone is a half hour timezone. So now all the times are one hour off, but I can't change it to fix it up as there isn't an appropriate timezone to change to!
Not to mention, although the timezone I have selected is the correct one (+9:30, Adelaide, Darwin), the time is an hour wrong.
Its a shame daylight saving finished for us. I was enjoying the extended days. It gets dark too fast now.

We should all boycott Daylight Savings Time by setting our clocks back and going about our days normally! That'll show'em!
