I was just wondering about this myself this morning . I just remember its usually right before Halloween and it gets darker alot earlier.

question........ the clubs and bars close at 2am but the clocks will get set back to 1am at 2am. so do we get an extra hour?

the whole reason it doesn't take effect untill 2 am was to keep the bars open. It used to be midnight but they changed it after WWI so the bars would sell more brew.

I'm actually working during those hours, so I end up giving my employer and extra hour for free. :mad:

But I get to make it up in the spring.

Aren't you an electrical engineer Wilkin? What the hell are you doing at the office that late?
