How does it cost millions??? Last time I checked I didnt have to pay to put the clock back :pp

the point in this by the way is to ballance out the day in the summer, for e.g. would you really want it to stay light until about midnight? (Sun goes down at 10:30 mid summer, if it wasnt for putting the clocks foreward the sun wouldnt set until 11:30) a lot of people cant sleep during the day so this would certtainly unsettle these people. Allthough I would prefer later daylight To be honest.

The original point in daylight savings was to save on candle wax during the winter, If I remember correctly. Bascicly it is to optomise the day so that pretty much all working is done in daylight.
