Daylight savings time

Traditionally, I am in the club of those who suffer from daylight savings time. I come late one way AND the other (well early, actually). Some things in life just aren’t obvious to me – and the self-sabotaging human in me always gets those wrong.

Today wasn’t so bad - yeah, got up at 4:30 am, but basically woke up with the thought: Damn - that alarm clock doesn’t know about DST. So no harm done.

When are we going to stop setting clocks backward and forward like that? It never fails to disrupt my belief in an absolute time. Might be a clever scheme from an Einsteinian secret society trying to install the theory of relativity in peoples minds. Or just a historical artefact that needs to go?
