Yea, but that's in like, November, so it doesn't really count. I'm feeling the effects of Daylight savings right now I can totally feel that I'm not going to start my hw until midnight because of the time change. | ||

Well it balances out :O In november you're going to be elated to get that extra hour of study or w/e you guys feel you're missing out on. Maybe I've missed this in previous years, but why is everybody complaining about DST all of a sudden? | ||

My physics teacher said that Daylight Savings was introduced because it was shown that people were more likely to buy when it's light outside. | ||

I don't get it; if you push an hour ahead, you "lose" an hour of light? | ||
