Moving the clock back

I was surprised to see that we don't move the clock back until November 2. We moved it forward on March 9. Seems like a long time.

Yes, it changed during the Bush Administration. I was happy about that, especially when it changes in the spring. It helps us Northeasterners with the end-of-winter doldrums to be able to get an additional hour of light. I'm also happy that we have to wait until early November to fall back.

I'm glad it's no longer in Oct! I dread moving the clock back and early darkness!!

Me too. The extra hour of sleep is nice, but the least amount of darkness, the better.
