Finally, someone on the net who knows their science

I just found this on the Internet, at Snide Remarks:

Dear Eric: Instead of making Daylight Saving Time a month longer, why doesn’t Congress just kill standard time altogether and make us live on DST all year long? — Daylight Dude

Dear Dude: This is elementary science. If we used Daylight Saving Time all year long, the sun would burn out faster due to our constant overuse of it. Come on, people, THINK before you submit questions.

I bet Steve Bracks hasn’t thought of that yet. Hopefully one of his advisers will clue him in soon.
