I don't understand how extending daylight savings time saves energy. I mean, no matter when the hours are, it is still light the same number of hours, right? And when it is not light, we turn the lights on, whether it is in the evening or the morning, right? So how am I saving energy by not turning my lights on at 6 am, but having to turn them on at 6pm instead of 7 pm? Or am I just a dunce?
