Did everyone remember to run their clocks forward Saturday

That's funny. First you turn the clock 150 years back and then you
turn it one hour forward.

If I remember correctly the original springing forward with
the clocks was supposed to help farmers get their crops to
the railroad shipping centers.  I'm guessing this gave them
more time in the fields and loading, driving, and unloading
their produce.  It seems a bit out of whack now as everything
is shipped to the loading docks by 18-wheelers but maybe the
extra daylight does give them more time in the fields.

I thought the idea was to save energy by giving people an extra hour
of daylight, while they're awake.
