Night Of The Stolen Hour

In just a little bit, by Decree of The State, an hour will be stolen from this morning.

This is done in order to shift the sun in its track against the clock.

It's yet another case where the desired effect could be accomplished by simply letting people shift their day an hour to better take advantage of the lengthening amount of sunlight.

No daylight is actually saved.  The earth's rotation is not altered.

It just means we're all an hour off for a while.

It's like everyone moved a timezone east without moving an inch.
