American's are leaving Daylight Savings Time behind for another six months, and we get an extra hours sleep tonight!

"Spring"ing forward is great for the energetic, but

"Fall"ing back is for the lazy at heart, in other words, me.

Do any other countries do this?

WOW! For some reason, I didn't realize it was a world wide thing.

I know we started doing it in WWII, it was called war time, or something similar.
