We don't use the stinkin metric system, Chalts. We're American! The King's foot is good enough for us!
but in the scientific community they do use the metric system, even in the US, so Chaltab's reference would be fine as it fits into this area.

I totally agree. Daylight savings time sucks. Some places in the US dont even use it (Arizona). Also, I was told that farmers (which is the main reason it was implemented) dont use it as it messes up their animals. dont know how true that is. I for one think we should keep the fall back, but get rid of the spring ahead. I like gaining the extra hour of sleep but hate loosing it in the spring
