 Daylight Saving time is OVER!
your friendly neighborhood clock master back once again to remind everyone in the U.S.A (except for Hawaii and most of Arizona) that daylight savings time will be over Sunday November 1st (tonight / tomorrow morning) at 2:00 AM so you will need to set your clocks Back one hour.

As a proud Arizonan I boo on everyone else for making my tv schedule all weird for the sake of an out of date farming principle.

I hate daylights savings time with a passion. If farmers want to get up earlier or later they should adjust their own alarm clocks, not the clocks of everyone else.

You've obviously never lived in Arizona.

Oddly enough changing the time on our clocks doesn't change how long the sun stays in the sky. Somehow the sun must have missed the memo that when we change our clocks it needs to warp time and space to increase or decrease the amount of time we see it.

 Re: Daylight Saving time is OVER!
It changes when people are awake, so they can enjoy the sun for longer than they might have. Really though, I only said all that stuff as a joke. I honestly don't care weather or not we have daylight savings time. I prefer being awake at night anyway. Like NinjaPirate said, the sun causes glare. Horror themed games are also considerably less scary if you play them during the day. And then there is the serene feeling the darkness gives me. I suppose that would be the main reason I prefer the night.

You have to go into your board preferences and set the "Summer Time/DST is in effect" option to "No".
