Actually, Greet (the girlfriend ;)) found some logic behind it.

Damn those smart people!:P

I'll bookmark this so I remember to tell her to come her and explain what she thought was the explanation.
Something about going to sleep earlier and rising earlier or something
I didn't get it ...
but I don't understand much ;)

I was of the same opinion as Gradius.

Well I say we just have the gov. use that secret technology they have to slow the earths rotation. Or we can have everyone on the globe run in the same direction, then stop at the same time, see if that slows us down any.:D

Here, it gets light at 3-4 AM. If the time were to go forward a couple of hours, then it'd totally make sense...though the daylight still hasn't been extended. :D

I fail to see how extending DST will give us more daylight. It really does not make sense.

They can extend it O_O Thats a really random way to try and save energy. Why not cut down on the stuff they use atm?
