daylight saving time : Is it really useful?

[zzzz]

I think it is just to confuse people.

Considering it will get dark a little later, it's cool with me.

if you're working the night, means you do 1 less hours work!

I think if daylight savings time confuses you you have alot more to worry about than it!

Daylight Savings Time was implemented, IIRC, during the OPEC Oil Crisis of the 70's.. in an effort to save gas and electricity.
In some parts of the country it may no longer be useful... but in California where there still seems to be an energy crisis, it could be..

but then again.. we consume ALOT more energy than ever before.. so who knows..
