I don't think Rumi had to deal with daylight savings time

The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you.

Don't go back to sleep.
You must ask for what you really want.

Don't go back to sleep.
People are going back and forth across the doorsill

where the two worlds touch.
The door is round and open.

Don't go back to sleep.
--Rumi, Sufi Mystic, 1207-1273

Somehow I don't think Rumi wrote this during the week after

ROFL you are so cute....hit the snooze if you need to and stay awake while sleeping to hear the breeze!.....The time change has more to do with commerece and the economy than with agrarian economy...at that time they wanted to give people the extra hour to get their good to market...in the fall congress wants to give stores and malls the extra hour of selling...LOL.....although You might be right and the internet can and will change that.....that would be awesome!....sweet dreams

I still think it has more to do with the momentum of "because we've always done it that way" more than any economic benefit. It's just harder to change something than to leave it alone.
