>And the daylight savings is presumably done to save energy, as if the lightbulbs are the greatest consumers of electricity. I've replaced all my lightbulbs with the new neon or whichever gas - so they use up about just 20% of what their hot counterparts would use. And most of the big city lights are already replaced with this sort. And when the LED lights begin to spread, this will reduce the light consumption even further.

On a visit to NY in the late 80s went on a tour bus. The courier explained that NYC saves $1m a year by changing all the WALK - DON'T WALK pedestrian cross lights to LEDs!
