Daylight Energy Saving

As part of its “energy strategy,” United States lawmakers are negotiating to extend daylight-saving time by a week. This is certainly a major step forward when the rest of the “energy strategy” consists of “find more oil so we can burn more oil.” Just think about it the equivalent of thousands of barrels oil will be saved a day. So instead of burning tens of million of barrels of oil a day, they will be burning, um… tens of million of barrels of oil a day. This is all very encouraging, finally the US is thinking about doing something that may save some energy. Who says Bush and Chaney are not sacrificing their financial well-beings for the good of the world?
