Save the Environment!
Tomorrow some of us switch our clocks back 1 hour, but the time we do it, & even the date that we do it at has been changed before!
That's right, daylight savings time, which really this year means an extra hour of partying (with people dressed up as something or another) is back!
So currently we observe daylight savings time from the last Sunday in April to the last Sunday in October
HOWEVER: Starting in 2007, we will be observing daylight savings time from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November!
This gets even more interesting due to the fact that time is under provincial/territorial jurisdiction, so not all provinces follow the same system
We had a leap second to begin the year, will be having a leap year soon, it's all so exciting!
So remember, the main purpose of daylight saving time is to save on energy! Speaking of saving the environment, we are wasting a lot of paper, stop it! Use both sides when printing & recycle!
