Daylight saving time

Since 1916 we change time two times a year. First it was invented to save money on lighting. But nowadays it causes more trouble than gain.

OK, on one side I like to see the sun at winter mornings when I wake up, it's better than waking up in dark and coming home in dark. But for example on calendar systems and many other places in this computerized world it causes trouble and eats up resources to adjust programs follow the many times changing and not world wide universal DST. In my company we had troubles in our calendar system because of DST...

And it you want the biggest reason against DST then it is my cat. Since we set the clock back 1 hour a week ago, he always wakes us up 1 hour before my wake up time, because he is hungry! An I don't like it!:)
