So, when it was announced in 2005 that Daylight Savings Time would be extended in as an energy conservation effort , I have to admit I thought it was kind of lame. Despite that, when the second Sunday of March rolls around I do get excited. I’m certainly still skeptical of the environment benefit, but I’m looking forward to going home from work before dark!
