The US is getting rid of daylights saving and, apparently, several provinces are on the road to doing the same. The Americans behind this plan, say that this will save millions of dollars in electricity.
Maybe, maybe not. I won't claim to fully understand how such things work.
But here's my question. If we get rid of daylight saving, will anyone notice? I mean, in winter, regardless of what the clock says. It's dark when I leave for work and it's dark when I return, and since Ionly get to go out at lunch and Ottawa weather is the shits in winter, I never see the daylight anyway. So, what does it matter?
I do know that nowhere else is this bizzare practice ... uhm .. practiced. Maybe the rest of the world knows something that we have yet to learn?
