Also in the past week was this OpEd on Daylight/Summer Time
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/20/opinion/20kotchen.html

The content has prompted the blogosphere to begin saying Obama will
abolish daylight time even though there's no such evidence.

It's more interesting for the web2.0 commentary in which we
see that it's very hard to get people to agree on what they're
even talking about when they say time, and even when they do
their regional differences and personal makeup create a situation
where agreement is unlikely.
