Ditto PaganArtist.   DST made some sense at the time when it was 
developed in the 1920's because the major use of electricity was 
for lighting, and most people worked 8-5.  

It stopped making sense in the '50s when all sorts of other
appliances (heating, washers, TVs) became the main users
of electricity.  

Now, with less uniformity of schedule, and lighting as a minor
part of the energy mix, it's been proved that DST actually uses
more energy.
