It's happening again: exactly at 2AM sunday night, 1 hour will disappear and the time will be 3AM. 1 hour extra daylight or an hour less sleep... depends on how you look at it I guess. From what I remember summertime was introduced in WW2 by the Germans. So on sunday morning: rise and shine, nazi time Wink

No I think the concept was first invented much earlier, and I think it was germans in WW1 that first used it, not WW2. Nazis are innocent of this torment, at least. Razz

Yes I said it! There are no workers that go to factories in modern countries (my country excluded from the modern list, but the rule applies since we have no industry or economy for that matter grinhurt), it's all automated now.

So why is this fucking rule robbing us of one hour of sleep?! I think Putin wanted to nullify that rule in Russia...

I don't know who was first to propose it - Putin or Medvedev, but Medvedev approved it. We switched 1 hour forward for the last time.

I just hope everyone will follow. I'm sick of having to adjust to this scheme, always takes me a couple of days to go into normal mode...
