Last night???
Goes back at 2:00 AM Sunday, November 7 in Pennsylvania.
But I do have trouble figuring the DOW.

Last night, tomorrow, time is all relative when you don't have a watch.

I had not thought of that as a way to keep track of the day...that's a great idea, thanks for sharing!

For those of us who like to get to hotspots at dawn, going back to standard time does throw a kink in our nighttime and morning routines.

Speaking as a retiree, I'd just as soon they picked either standard or daylight savings & then just leave it alone. There's only 24 hours in a day & no two people can agree on which time to use anyway.

Daylight savings time is a biannual reminder that your govt. is incompetent.
How does implementing DST make the government incompetent?
It's simply a time shift to have daylight at a different time, ie. later into the evening.
What's interesting is how people accommodate living at the edge of a time zone, not in the middle of one.

It was never necessary...it doesn't work...accidents increase every time they do it...people die.
They KNOW this...and yet.
That's why.

Interesting that some people like it and some don't.
Maybe the people who like it have no problem with it.

I don't care one way or the other.
There is 24 hrs. in a day regardless of what times day and night start.
