Well all I know about this one is that I fell asleep in church today and 
wondered why--until I realized I set my clock forward and lost that valuable 
hour of sleep.  Not to worry though, just think, when I go to church on 
Sunday sometime in November (I forget when) I'll be bright-eyed and 
bushy-tailed for that particular sermon--whatever and whenever it is :-)!

I actually think there are benefits to each end of this.  If you left it one
way or the other, there'd be problems for some one in either Winter or
Summer so it's not a bad idea to balance it out.  I suspect the problem most
people have is making the adjustment.  A week or 2 after either change, you
don't hear a thing about it until it's time to change again.  Just my 2
cents worth.  No flames, please.  lou WA3MIX
