Daylight savings.......again!
For all us West Australians....
It's that time of year again when we are now 21hours ahead of most eastern states cities and towns. lol.
For all those that don't understand...... The sun sleeps in an hour longer, but stays awake and goes to bed an hour later.
Warning....This disruption may fade their curtains. lol.

I understand your concern, but us people in the East have serious issues with the sun fading our cows.

Just a question for all you EDST people.... Do your swimming pools close the hour later to compensate for the extra hour of heat?

This is a serious issue, how the hell are we supposed to save water now that we have to put extra water on the lawn to compensate for the longer daylight hour.

sigh... you do know it is a proven scientific fact IE there is empirical evidence that DLS does indeed fade the curtains.
1. arrive home from work
2. get beer
3. draw curtains to watch TV
4. the curtains are now subject to an extra one hour of sunlight between drawing time and sunset
The formula expressed as a percentage to obtain FAG (Fading Aggregate Gain) of curtain life reduction is quite complex and uses BULL (Binary Utilitarian Linen Lumenousity) as an exponential divisor to SHIT (Solar Hour Illiminatory Termination).
When the MORON (Mean Orientation Relative to Orthographic North) factor is then applied a quite accurate determination of how much more fading an individual curtain will suffer is in evidence.
Oh, and don't get me started on why people don't believe the Farmers when they know the milk output does indeed drop because the Cows get sunburnt udders.
Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.

This is the exact answer I would expect from you for a simple, basic statement I made. PML.
