Friends, Accordingto the state decree this night we have put all Russian clocks one hour forwardforever. From this moment we have the year-round DST only witch we are toldmakes us to get from 7 to 17% of sunshine more during a year. It looks like truth. But federal TV shows us ahappy farmer who smiles on the background of his happy smiling cows and saysthat from now his top model looking dairy cattle has no hardship with milkingtimetable. I wonderwho is treated as a fool: TV journalists, cows or I. I share the opinion thatfrom ancient time till now any government in any country uses the calendar,holidays dates and time kipping method for manipulating the populationonly. I wonder,is the year-round DST a useful time measuring method indeed or, as usual andfor government sake, we just were not informed about some important details? By the way,when we all discussed the year-round DST I (as a sundial maker) tried to lobbyfor a proposal to render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's and to decreetwo time measure systems. One of them is a state one. Let government regulatesindustry, army, airline schedule etc according GMT. The other is a private one.The rest of time related question we quite can solve with true solar timemeasure method. Of course, my proposal had been spurned. But you imagine howmany customers it might bring to all of us. Bestwishes, Aleks http://www.boldyrevsundials.com/ (http://www.boldyrevsundials.com/)
