daylight saving:)
so i wake up this morning to find that my computer is behind by one hour:) very pleased with the fact that it has automatically adjusted itself to 'reverse daylight saving' .
Wiki describes it as: " Daylight saving time (also called DST, or summer time) is the portion of the year in which a region's local time is advanced by (usually) one hour from its official standard time. It is most common in temperate regions.
"Daylight saving time" is a system intended to "save" daylight, as opposed to "wasting" time (for example, by sleeping long past sunup). The official time is adjusted forward during the spring and summer months, so that the active hours of work and school will better match the hours of daylight."
Quite cool...so now that winter is here, the reverse is in practise:) clocks all across europe are now set back by one hour:) I get more daylight when i go to work, and in some warped way, get to sleep in by an hour...but then its the same for everybody...
i wonder if we back in india would think of something like this for the farmers slaving their ass of in the winter months....hmmm must write to the president.
