LEAPSECS own Tony Finch has a couple of time related contributions in the current ACM Risks Digest, including a cartoon lampooning daylight saving time:

Those interested might start by first reading a slightly more speculative contribution ("Australia & NZ should totally abandon Daylight Savings Time") from a different author:
