It's that time of year again folks. Daylight Savings Time. Thank the lobbying efforts of William Willett for why we do this.
It's spring time... so lets "Spring Forward." A la set your clocks forward for an hour in some vain attempt to rule over nature. History shows that for hundreds of years (even the Romans did it) people would shift some of that extra sun time from the early morning (when I'm still sleeping) to the evening (when I'm procrastinating).
Winston Churchill argued that DST enlarges "the opportunities for the pursuit of health and happiness among the millions of people who live in this country."
As some of you may remember, the Day the Clocks Moved Forward was on the first Sunday in April, but our U.S. Congress put that straight by moving it to this morning back in 2005.
