Okay, you can call me a radical. A troublemaker, a dissenter or even a curmudgeon. But tonight we must reset our clocks, "springing forward," and enter the realm of daylight savings time. Why?
We all know the history, started during World War II. It was enacted so families had an extra hour, after working in a defense plant all day, to work in their "Victory Garden." The Victory Garden was more symbolic than anything, but demonstrated the American spirit of independence and self-sufficiency.
Fast forward over 60 years to 2008. Now, it has been calculated that productivity, energy savings, safety, and even the mental dispositions of Americans are enhanced by an artificial adjusting of our timepieces. Well, I for one say enough is enough!
Time is at best a vague concept, and we have learned that it is relative, and can be bent or warped by gravity. There are black holes out there in the Universe that are spinning time for a loop, and the time-space continuum is moving energy forward into the future. Giant stars are exploding and then collapsing in on themselves and yet...
We think that just by turning a dial at 2 A.M. it is going to make it all better!

I hate when it is time to ajust the clocks no matter which way we go, it messes me up.
