On August 8, 2005, President George W. Bush signed the Energy Policy Act of 2005. This Act changed the time change dates for Daylight Saving Time in the U.S. Beginning in 2007, DST will begin on the second Sunday in March and end the first Sunday in November. The Secretary of Energy will report the impact of this change to Congress. Congress retains the right to resume the 2005 Daylight Saving Time schedule once the Department of Energy study is complete.

its getting dark here now at 6.30 in the afternoon, after daylight saving and a couple of weeks further it will be dark here at 5.00 in the afternoon, i find it all shit too, the only thing i like is the one hour back:D it gives me one hour of more sleep . The daylight saving is more a pain in the ass then a big help, i dont care about it and i wish they would stop it.

It's really the signal of the beginning of better sales, as it influences people to retreat into their homes and apartments earlier, so they have more time to surf porn each day.

Aside from that, this whole man-invented time thing is just fucked anyway.

100% true. While I know many try to convince themselves of no summer slowdown; to me eight straight years of a small dip in the summer months is a sign of something. Although this past summer was the best I ever had. Though I know that is due to my current "Cross cumtry tour".

More darkness = Less outdoors; more indoors.
More indoors = More time surfing porn.
More time surfing porn = More sales.

Ever since Canada switched to the metric clock with it's 10 hour days I've been really confused.


All times are GMT -4. The time now is 10:37 AM.
