Daylight Saving Time... Where it's all Begun!!!
It is said that Benjamin Franklin was the fist to think of Day Light Saving during his stay in Paris as an American delegate in 1784. But this idea was pushed by William Willet, in the a short essay intitled "The Waste of Daylight" in 1907. In his essay William Willet wrote "Everyone appreciates the long, light evernings. Everyone laments their shortage as Autumn approaches; and everyone has given utterance to regret that the clear, bright light of an early morning during Spring and Summer months is so seldom seen or used." This is where it has begun. The it was implemented in the US on March 1918 and after that there has been changes of the law. Just like any laws there are some inconsistency which caused some confusion.
Hmmm... as for me this is the first time that I am affected with daylight saving time. So I dont know if this will really effect my daily task. But hey! who doesn't like an extra hour in bed? Me... I don't mind at all LOL!!!
