Yes, this earlier kick in is part of GWBush's Energy Study. :funn: Seriously, but whatever the cause, I am happy. I wish we were in the Eastern time zone then we could have it better all the time.

needs to get out more
a huge page from California, filled with great information regarding DST:
http://www.energy.ca.gov/daylightsaving.html
Beginning in 2007, Daylight Saving Time is extended one month and begins for most of the United States at:
2 a.m. on the Second Sunday in March
to
2 a.m. on the First Sunday of November.
(See chart below.)
The new starts and stop dates were set in the Energy Policy Act of 2005.
Change Your Clock & Change A Bulb!
The National Fire Protection Association and the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission recommend that consumers change the battery in smoke and carbon monoxide detectors when we change the clocks for Daylight Saving Time.
While you've got the ladder out to check your smoke detectors, why not change a bulb?
Switching to energy efficient bulbs in your ceiling fixtures could save you $30 a year per bulb on your electricity bill.
Energy efficient lighting is particularly important in the fall when Daylight Saving Time ends and the days are shorter.
The latest generation of energy-saving lighting includes compact fluorescent bulbs that fit in standard light sockets and provide pleasant, uniform light.
Low-energy halogen or LED lighting is also becoming widely available.
