Saving what exactly?

September 2018 is over, and so we have someone to induct into the Sick Phoque Club. This month, it's daylight savings. What the deal is is that by sacrificing an hour of daylight in the morning, you get an extra hour of evening daylight. This is good for a lot of things, but is it really worth having to change your clocks twice a year? A Native American proverb comes to mind: Only a white man would believe that you could cut a foot off the top of a blanket and sew it to the bottom of a blanket and have a longer blanket.
