Daylight savings was created during a world war (i forget which II maby) to save coal. With daylights savings time there was more daylight so less coal was used to fule electricty in cities so it could be used in the steel making process. just FYI I'll try and look up whose decition it was and get back to you so you know who to really blame.

Website about the origins of daylight savings time wrote:Origin
It is sometimes asserted that DST was first proposed by Benjamin Franklin in a letter to the editors of the Journal of Paris [1]. However, the article was humorous; Franklin was not proposing DST, but rather that people should get up and go to bed earlier.
Take that. Whether it was implemented or not is of no consequence, it was his idea.

For that, you'll have to read my comic!
Aw heck, I'm a bad advertiser.
Rpin saidthat although there's a classic "loser gets the girl" webcomic setup in "Alex and Illia", he at least avoided long period of tension between characters before they end up together (you know, something like curse from heavens above that keeps them from hooking up although they're perfect match. It's so common in webcomics that you surely read at least one comic with it).

On account of mcDuffies having such tension, I'm saying that I'm ATTENTION: SPOILER!!! wrapping it up and in very recent storyline they should end up a pair at least.
