It should be singular, so why do people make it plural?Kay G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07228498846814735537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3061832609518891075.post-4701760780714019012017-03-10T16:25:29.499-06:002017-03-10T16:25:29.499-06:00Useful information; thanks for reminding me about ...Useful information; thanks for reminding me about the time change.John Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18185765129472832100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3061832609518891075.post-45138655234079768122017-03-10T11:15:22.564-06:002017-03-10T11:15:22.564-06:00I did not see the program.

Many states kept placing it on the ballots until people were so sick of seeing it that they gave in and voted for it.

I sure do wish we would go back to just having one time year round. Did you see the recent PBS show about time, how our concern with knowing the time has increased over the years, how time zones got started back in the railroading days, and so on?Snowbrushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00436087215476479042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3061832609518891075.post-1129882965423695452017-03-10T08:49:12.004-06:002017-03-10T08:49:12.004-06:00Every year there is an outcry here when time sprin...Every year there is an outcry here when time springs ahead. Young families have a hard time adjusting to the change. There are more car accidents as well.

I think little children having to go trick or treating in the dark on Halloween (Oct. 31st) helped spur the change. Don't know what reason was given for the spring change.rhymeswithplaguehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10870439618129001633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3061832609518891075.post-351832286609109142017-03-10T07:20:58.306-06:002017-03-10T07:20:58.306-06:00Good to know.
