Just thought that I'd pass this along. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Since 1966, most of the United States has observed Daylight Saving Time from at 2:00 a.m. on the first Sunday of April to 2:00 a.m. on the last Sunday of October. Beginning in 2007, most of the U.S. will begin Daylight Saving Time at 2:00 a.m. on the second Sunday in March and revert to standard time on the first Sunday in November. In the U.S., each time zone switches at a different time.</div> Also... <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">The official spelling is Daylight Saving Time, not Daylight SavingS Time. Saving is used here as a verbal adjective (a participle). It modifies time and tells us more about its nature; namely, that it is characterized by the activity of saving daylight. It is a saving daylight kind of time. Similar examples would be a mind expanding book or a man eating tiger. Saving is used in the same way as saving a ball game, rather than as a savings account. Nevertheless, many people feel the word savings (with an 's') flows more mellifluously off the tongue. Daylight Savings Time is also in common usage, and can be found in dictionaries. Adding to the confusion is that the phrase Daylight Saving Time is inaccurate, since no daylight is actually saved. Daylight Shifting Time would be better, but it is not as politically desirable. </div> I've always said it as "Savings". Rest of the Article
I think the whole world should use the same time. So when it's 08:00 (that's how you write it btw) in New York, it should also be 08:00 in Moscow. It would take some getting used to in the beginning, but then it would rock.
^It would be confusing though. Some countries would have day at our 12:00 A.M. So for them their day would be considered 12 A.M.
