Why?

Anybody know the real reason "they" decided to move DST up four weeks?

I believe it was under the instigation of senator Lincoln Chafee, now retired, as in not reelected :-)

He proposed it to:
-save money
-save energy
-save lives

If it wasn't him, then it was someone that looked like him.

(thank-you notes can be sent to Mr. Chafee c/o Brown University's Watson Institute for International Studies, where he is a visiting scholar)

Ahh, thank you, Mommy, for rescuing your lazy daughter from ignorance!

Do you want to send a thank-you note for me? I don't have any stamps right now.

Actually, ma chère, I just happened to see a short segment on the news one evening...
