Well, this last weekend, 48 of the 50 United States went nuts. The thing is, they do it every six months. They decide to arbitrarily set their clocks forward one hour to put them all off kilter, then six months later they decide to move it back because they don't like it. But then six months after that they do it again. Is this nuts or what?
I used to be forced into this society-wide insanity myself when I was growing up in California. But then I got smart and moved to Arizona, which has enough sense to leave our clocks where they are supposed to be year round. Apparently Hawaii is the only other full state with this much common sense as well. (Other US islands that are territories, but not states, also follow our example).
Those of you who have been duped into thinking this practice actually makes sense may want to take a look at this article:
