Once upon a time, there may have been a real reason for this. These days? it actually costs more then it saves.<\/p>\n<p>I remember, (And I&#8217;m dating myself here), when they decided to have daylight savings time all year long. I also remember waiting for a school bus in the pitch black road, (No lights where I was) , and hoping I didn&#8217;t get run down by someone on his way to work who didn&#8217;t see me. If I recall correctly, there were a number of children who were run over, and this is one of the reasons they rolled it back.<\/p>\n<p>So who is responsible for the current situation? That would be now Senator, (and then representative), Ed Markey. (Moonbat &#8211; Mass). I&#8217;ll let the Angry Webmaster tear this useless turd a new one.
