Anybody else sleep right through the shift to Daylight Savings Time this year? Anybody else find out they were supposed to have "sprung forward" only after showing up an hour late for Sunday brunch? (Sorry Grandma!)

Does Daylight Savings Time Really Save Electricity?
by
Mistie Fairchild
Although made into U.S. law by the Uniform Time Act of 1966, it was first proposed by Benjamin Franklin in 1784, while he was a minister to France. No action was taken then, but in 1907 the subject came up again when Englishman William Willett suggested that England move the clock ahead by 80 minutes.

Daylight Saving Time Is Obsolete
by
Mark D Shapiro
The asserted goal in 2007 was again to save energy. I would have chosen to abandon DST, and move to "summer and winter hours" instead. And, while DST might have saved energy 80 years ago, I do not think DST saves any energy in modern times. What energy is saved in the morning gets lost in the evening and vice versa.

Daylight Savings Time - It's New Effect on Canadian IT systems
by
Stuart Crawford
This Sunday, March 11th, Canada and the other parts of the world will prepare not to spring ahead but take a leap forward. Daylight Savings Time will hit us four weeks earlier that what we have been used to in the past due to a change passed in the United States to extend the period of the time that daylight savings time is in effect. Daylight Savings Time will now be in effect from the second Sunday in March to the First Sunday in November.

by
Greg E Watson
How does daylight savings time impact hourly employees? Employers? Overtime? Every spring and every fall, Daylight Savings Time impacts hourly workers and employers across the country.

Putting Daylight Savings Time Change To Work For You!
by
Gregory L Gomez
I always found it frustrating when we change our clocks an hour back in the fall causing darkness to set in around 5pm. I never truly agreed with this time change always wondering how it really helps us these days. Now that we're back to days with extended daylight hours, I have found myself really motivated to get outside more and exercise. If you have been pleasantly surprised at the extended daylight hours we now have, let that help inspire you to be more active.
