[QUOTE="bovrill, post: 4941572, member: 12758"] I don't understand why we have come up with a way of measuring a day, dividing it into 24 segments based around when the sun is at it's highest, midday, and the middle of when it's dark, midnight. Then decide that this man made measurement doesn't fit the schedules that we have constructed around it, so instead of doing what we do at the sensible time, we shift the whole concept of time forward an hour to artificially make it feel like the sun rises and sets later. And midday is suddenly at 1 o'cock in the afternoon! [/QUOTE]
