Tales of a New Zealand entomologist in the late 19th century, and even a Ben Franklin quip about reducing candle wax use over a hundred years earlier, are often credited with the birth of Daylight Saving Time, but Germany and Austria were the two countries that ushered in Daylight Saving Time back in 1916 "during World War I to decrease energy used for lights and help conserve energy supplies to help the war effort," per CBS News. DST began in the United States in 1918 |
I've read that FL has voted to end the states' participation in Daylight Savings Time, but apparently it has to be OK'ed by the Federal Government for some reason. I'm hoping that they OK it soon as I hate the time change in the winter months.
