Actually will work out great for me because our wedding is Sunday 10/30, the day after the clocks are orginally supposed to change. We were concerned that people might not show up at the right time.
Now, if they change it - thats one less thing we have to worry about!

If they didn't show up at the right time they would have been early...not late...

I still wish it wouldn't happen. I NEED the extra hour of sleep!

Sorry girls, it won't apply to you. If it passes it will, it will start in 2007


A move by Congress to extend daylight-saving time for four weeks to save energy has prompted an outcry from parent groups and the nation's airline industry, which warn it could be dangerous and costly.

Lawmakers from the House and Senate agreed Thursday to include a provision - part of a larger energy bill - that would start daylight-saving time three weeks earlier, the second Sunday in March, and end it a week later, the first Sunday of November. Kids would have an hour more daylight for trick-or-treating on Halloween.


'This is a huge victory for sunshine lovers,' says Rep. Edward Markey (news, bio, voting record), D-Mass., co-author of the bipartisan measure the House passed April 21. The change would become permanent in spring 2007 if Congress passes the overall energy bill, which is far from certain. President Bush says he wants an energy bill, but his administration opposes an extension of daylight-saving time.

there was something in the CNN article about livestock issues. I would think that more daylight would be a good thing for crops, no?
