Thanks Congress!

Beginning in 2007, daylight saving time (DST) will be extended in the United States. DST will start on March 11, 2007, which is three weeks earlier than usual, and it will end on November 4, 2007, which is one week later than usual. This results in a new DST period that is four weeks longer than in previous years. Unless certain updates are applied to your computer, the time zone settings for your computer's system clock may be incorrect during this four-week period. In particular, you must make sure that both your Windows operating system and your calendar programs are updated.

Can't we all just agree that Daylight Savings is stupid and be done with it? Though if we don't all install these updates, we'll likely all die!

Considering my oldest son is getting up at the first sign of light, I do thank them for the earlier DST. That's 3 weeks less I'll have to deal with getting up around 6:30 7 days a week!
