It’s just about time to fall back an hour

Don’t forget to set your clocks back an hour tonight before you go to bed.

At 2am Nov. 3 it’s time to return to standard time.

The whole reason for this, according to the federal government, is energy and fuel savings.

Daylight saving time returns March 9.

    The reports today show the opposite impact and it actually uses more energy for daylight savings time.
    The question is “whose experts are correct” the ones today or the ones in 1966?

    We should actually be shoving clocks forward
    another hour instead of falling back. This
    is ridiculous and Pres Nixon had it right way
    back in 72 when it was year round supposedly
    because of the Arab oil crisis. Then Pres Bush
    2nd added a few weeks to it I guess, but why
    don’t we advocate this for year round? Call your
    reps as I did last week, and guess what? They
    all agree and say that their wives are even
    screaming about it!!!
