Day light savings!!!!!!!WHY?...and logic?..every one happily agrees...tries reasoning it out...explains..i still dont understand! Do they?..winters..i remember uttarayan dakshinayan that i was explained back in India..pure logic!..Winters..ratra lavkar hote, so i would really like it it if 4:00 was called 5:00..pan nahi, they call it 3:00..wow! sakali andhar asto mhanun it makes sense as far as the sunrise is concerned..but ma kashala have na?..phycologicakach tar ahe na!..anyway..one hour extra sleep for that particular day..thats the prize! but forget consistancy..not true uniformly everywhere..haha!

Good to finally see you thinking about the day light saving thing! :-)
Ani as far as the logic is concerned, you should probably come here and see how depressing it is to get out of the house at 8 in the morning and see that everything is still very much dark! To me it makes a lot of sense calling it 7 then insted of 8!

Why break your head on all these issues... juz get up and start working and when you are tired doze off..

ok.. I'm getting to be an expert at writing comments on long buried posts, (that to uninvited.. but what the heck..)... so here is the basic funda of daylight saving...
in winter, in Europe and N. America (and other countries.. but I would digress)daybreak is late... and andhar is early.... so decrement time by an hour, so ppl go off to work early... and (hopefully if you are a good girl) switch off lights etc in the house... also you work less in the dark, and hence you spend less on lighting in the offices and factories (which makes more sense actually.. than homes -on 2nd thoughts, the saving at home cancels off (morning - evening) ). So you save a trememdous amount of energy, by simply decrementing time an hour... we don't do so in India.. cos either the difference in daytime isn't too much.. or else (more likely) nobody cares
