We set our clocks to Standard Time in about a week. Finally! What a silly stupid thing we do twice a year. We should leave it on Standard Time.
I have an acquaintance who thinks that the reason it is darker in the winter is because we change our clocks. She is convinced that there would be more light if we stayed on DST. When I mentioned that there is naturally different amounts of light in a 24 hour period depending on the season, she just blinked at me. Couldn't comprehend that regardless of our clocks, winter is just darker. Tilt of the earth and all that.
And she teaches science.
Sigh.
