Time Change Fall 2009

Blue indicates countries where DST is currently used (via: Wikipedia).
Note: It shows India as a country where DST was once used (yellow color) but not any more. To my knowledge DST was never used in India.

I hope you haven’t forgotten to set your clocks back by 1 hour before you went to bed. Today is the day of time change for Fall 2009.

24th October 2009 is the day when you get one extra hour of sleep each morning. Have you woken up already?

Daylight saving time (DST), also known as summer time in British English, is the convention of advancing clocks so that afternoons have more daylight and mornings have less. Typically clocks are adjusted forward one hour near the start of spring and are adjusted backward in autumn. Modern DST was first proposed by George Vernon Hudson, a New Zealand entomologist in 1895. Many countries have used it since then.

Daylight Savings Time will end November 1, 2009! So before you go to bed the night before, remember to set your clocks backwards. You will get an extra hour of sleep. Daylight Savings Time will next star the second Sunday in March 2010.

The concept of Daylight Savings Time came from George Vernon Hudson in 1895. But historians note that Romans used different clock scales in ancient times at different parts of the years.

Daylight Savings Time has always caused controversy. Churchill said once in support of Daylight Savings Time that it affords “the opportunities for the pursuit of health and happiness among the millions of people who live in this country”.
