I Dislike Daylight Savings Time

Daylight saving push could save on oil, too
I really do dislike Daylight Savings time -- maybe because my grandfather did. Granddad called it 'man's time' and of course the other 'God's time' -- his contention was if you want more daylight get up earlier in the morning.
WASHINGTON -- When people go through the ritual of moving their clocks forward each spring ushering in daylight-saving time, they're also saving energy -- the equivalent of thousands of barrels of oil, in fact.
Congress says a good thing can be made better.
The House, in approving a massive energy bill, would extend daylight saving to the first Sunday in March and to the last Sunday in November. It now starts in early April and ends in late October.
