The time zones, they are changing. The computer I use fell back most
appropriately. (As you may notice from the date. At least I hope it
says something like "Sun 27 Oct 1:00PM EST." (It actually being more
like "Sat 26 Oct 14:00 EDT," with the date set wrong.)
Are you ready? For the /change/.

Subject: saving daylight during the summer
Daylight Saving Time begins for most of the United States at 2 a.m. on
the first Sunday of April. Time reverts to standard time at 2 a.m. on
the last Sunday of October. It is sometimes referred to as 'Summer
Time.'
Please take note: It is Daylight Saving Time. We are saving daylight.
As we can not store the savings, well, not directly anyway, er, um, oh
heck, just remember that we are saving daylight, rather than storing
savings.
The phrase came to us with 'saving' as an action, a verb; rather than as
a result, a noun.
