The change from daylight to standard time occurs at 2 a.m. Sunday for most of us.


Daylight-saving time returns April 2nd, 2006

Ohhh, I forgot about that. But it means we get an extra hour in bed (sort of), so I'm not complaining. :D

Isn't it done so that school children go to school in the light and come home in the light?

That's good for me, because I have to wake up at 6:00 on Sunday because the marching band's going to Disneyland. An extra hour is always appreciated.

I heard it daylight savings occurs because of farmers and their crops or something.
