My son came home the other day and quizzed me:
"Mom, do we have daylight savings time because A) It helps farmers, B) It reduces crime, C) It helps cops, or D) because of war."
I said "Because of the farmers, of course. Everyone knows that."
Yeah, I'm NOT smarter than a third grader. I get an F on that quiz. The answer is all of the above EXCEPT "A"!! Oh and apparently it helps Trick or Treaters get home before dark. Harumph.
Perhaps it was because I was brought up in a farming community that we were taught this reason? I had never heard of the others.

Yeah, I think three is enough lol.
Personally I think that we should keep it in the Spring Forward time and say to hell with it. If you feel the same way you can check out this site:
I'm gonna go drink another cup o' coffee...its a 4 banger day I think.
Hysterical--I would have answered A also--mostly because I just saw it on a) CNN b)History Channel c)The Discover Channel, D) the New York Times or E) ALL OF THE ABOVE!!!
