what is going on here?
why would you be sad?

you know you dont actually LOSE an hour right? you just change your clocks. Its not like some magical time of the year where an hour goes by at the speed of light.

ok well that didn't work.  i was sitting and waiting, and then since not every state is doing it, my computer didn't change.  

so now im sitting here looking at a clock i know is wrong and i know should be an hour ahead, thus meaning i just instantly lost an hour of sleep.

europe laughs at your american plight. we change all of our clocks at the same time, 2 weeks from now.

aha yeah most clocks in my house other than the one that gets me up in the morning are still set since i never changed them in the fall... its a bitch though bc i have 2 of the exact same $10 watch and ones set for daylight savings the others not that way i dont have to set them since i never bothered to learn how... so i get the 2 mixed up a lot

well, once we realized they didn't work too good whenever we entered a house, we started using the demon watches of the west. Many died, but it was necessary.

i dont know about further south, but here it actually means using more energy since its still dark in the morning when i get up and it wasnt yesterday. and lightbulbs use like the least energy of anything we could cut back on. it just seems like congress has more important things to do like ratifying kyoto.

It doesn't seem significant enough to change daylight savings time just for that reason...

I believe you, but I don't think its going to help really at all..
