Saving the Daylight

Since my blog is titled, "Beyond the Horizon", thinking about the actual horizon is part of the deal. I own several computers and handhelds plus a myriad of electronic home devices that have clocks so the weekend where the clocks are "changed" is a lot of work. Why do so many things have clocks in them; some for no real reason?

My friend, Tony Vincent, know to us here as the "King of Handheld Devices", has a great blog entry on the phenomenon of Daylight Saving Time. In addition to the essential technical information, he reminds us that there are two great resources available for lessons: Microsoft's Investigating Daylight and the Webexhibit, About Daylight Saving Time.

The arrival of unexpected snow here in Massachusetts while we yearn for spring sunshine keeps our faces springing forward beyond the horizon.
