You only ever quote this when someone you disapprove of calls you an "idiot" but never when one of your supporters calls someone an "idiot" for disagreeing with you or being critical of you. 😉

The word "idiot", as wolfgang59 is pointing out means suffering from profound intellectual disability or a person of subnormal intelligence. Presumably this is what Kegge means when he uses the word. 😉

Correct, why use five words if one will suffice.

Are you daft enough to think Daylight Savings is international?!?

UK Daylight Saving starts 27th March
NZ Daylight Saving ENDS on 3rd April.

And on this date in history mwmiller suggested that we do away with daylight saving time completely.

It would be simple. Next time it comes up, just move the clock 1/2 hour instead of an hour, and then quit messing with it twice a year. Just leave it along.

Times have changed. We need light in the evenings for recreation.
I'm in favour of +1 in winter. +2 in Spring & Autumn & +3 in summer!

What latitude do you live on???
