to explain daylight savings to my fourteen-year old daughter. (Well, 15 minutes anyway) She insisted it meant she would be getting up earlier each day than before.

No, actually, she is quite bright!

Very simple-When it first started we called it golf-ball time. (Yes, I was around for the first clock change.) It allowed the office workers to get off work an hour earlier so they would have an extra hour of daylight to play golf. :evil:

You see, when it is Spring, you set the clock forward... Spring forward.

Oh, you were just kidding, right?

I moved my clock forward.

About six inches forward.

And it still was an hour off! :evil:
