Can I just say...

When will the madness that is daylight savings time end? It is insane to be sending kids off to school while it is still dark! How is that a good thing AT ALL? I live near an elementary school and am so worried for the kiddos.

Let's face it, winter clothes, especially coats do tend to be somewhat dark colored. It's a good thing in a lot of ways. It helps retain heat, etc. It also means, though, that kids wearing these are less visible to drivers in the dark.

I know, I know... allegedly it will save money on energy. Somehow... I'm not convinced. Just seems that we've shifted the energy usage from one time of day to another. We're not going to see it end until November 4 this year...
