I'm not sure when other places in the world has theirs, but in Australia, we had daylight savings lst Sunday. My whole family were unaware of it, so my little brother was late for tutor, I was late for tennis practice and my mum was left wondering what had happened to her favourite morning radio program. I went into work later and my boss was stunned, she thought I'd rocked up 1hr early, apparently she didn't know about it either and opened up her shop 1hr late as well.

Happened a few times to me but its not as bad as the International Data Line. Was traveling west from Hawaii late on December 31st once and completely missed New Year's day. Airline did not even serve champagne. Kinda sucked.

Me GOD! I think it is so stupid that we have to Spring Forward and Fall Back like what does it really change? I hardly think the Earth slows down at all or something magic happens in fact I know it doesn't. I think it's just to humor the stupid farmers or whoever decided the screw the rest of us over by taking away an hour of sleep or giving us an extra one so we sleep in and are late for work. *chases after cause of Daylight Savings Hour with rifle-pitchfork*

Since Daylight savings is actually bad for you. I dislike it for that reason and the fact is I cant read the time right by looking outside. However, its rather pointless. I don't think many people will miss it. Its good in some cases, but rather moot is most others.
