Soundtrack Moment

Remember to change your clocks this morning. Starting next year, Daylight Saving Time will expand by a month. As a result of the Energy Policy Act of 2005, the new start date for Daylight Saving Time will be the second Sunday in March (next year, on March 11, 2007) rather than the beginning of April date we are used to; and end one week later in the fall, the first Sunday in November. There's a nice informative website about DST at webexhibits.org.

Maybe when that oh-so-early darkness falls this evening, listen to Tom Waits promise us that you can never hold back spring, and the sun will come back. The link is around, on blogs and websites and being emailed hither and thither: anecdotal proof that a notable proportion of the user population on the web is people of a certain age...
