Saturday, October 30, 2004Stupid questions regarding daylight savings time
At 2 AM, the clocks will roll back to 1. Does this mean the bars stay open an hour late tonight? Will this have any effect on my tolerance level?
Do TV stations repeat the same programming? Imagine you're watching a movie and it's seconds away from the exciting conclusions. Presumably, at 2 AM the movie will jump back an hour. Won't that be irritating? If I get arrested at 1:59 and when the clocks roll back to 1 a minute later, will the police release me from custody since the dictates of time, space and the Farmer's Almanac state that the crime could never have happened? If you were born on October 30th, this means you'll get to enjoy an extra hour of birthday fun. Do you really think this is fair? Is daylight savings time the closest we'll ever get to time travel? If so, don't you think that's incredibly lame?
