The leap forward to Daylight Savings Time where I live happened today. I think there are several reasons for DST, but I’m not sure if they’re real reasons or if they are even valid anymore. For most people, the jump to DST is an annoyance as it means the loss of an hour’s sleep. On the other hand the fall back to Standard Time in the fall is a godsend as it means an hour’s extra sleep. No matter, it’s a small disruption either way and “non-connected” clocks and watches have to be adjusted.
