I agree, totally. I have never understood the merits of Daylight Savings Time(DST). It was popularized originally to help preserve the number of candles burnt in Colonial America.. And there is no real benefit to still doing it. According to the US government, electricity savings from DST are at most 1%. According to the American Journal of Cardiology, there is a correlation between DST and heart attacks this time of year. Likewise, DST has been linked to sleep disorders and in countries with DST, students perform worse on their SAT scores than against students from countries that dont participate in the DST nonsense. But hey, look on the bright side, it may be bad for your health and your kids academic performance, but think about all that money your saving on buying all those extra candles.
