The kid has been fretting about this for half an hour now. He wants me to change the time back. I would if I could, kiddo, but it's the law. He says it's a bad law. Yup, I agree, but I still can't change it.

This is a damn tyranny we live under. Storm the capitol! Take back bed time!

    This event reminded me that while I've read all the justifications
    for changing the time twice a year, I find them all to be stupid.
    There's no way it saves any significant amount of energy.
    Farmers can't possibly care what the hour on the clock says:
    whether the clock says 5 or 6 it's still "milk-the-cows-o'clock".
    Even if it saved any coal consumption during WWII, that's
    irrelevant today.
    Some people might prefer to have an extra hour of light in the
    evening.....get up an hour earlier?

    Maybe I'll vote for Trump if he promises he can get rid of
    daylight savings.
