And so our annual subservience to the golfers begins again.

The switch to Daylight Saving Time is well known to kill people. There is an increase in both heart attacks and traffic accidents following the time change. There is no benefit in reduced energy costs, or really anything at all except a little extra daylight after lunch to get in one more hole at the golf course.

Daylight Saving Time was started in WWI by President Wilson (an avid golfer), ostensibly to improve wartime productivity. We won the war, it’s been over for 92 years, and there has never been any proven productivity gain. Can we stop now?
