Daylight saving time to end on Nov. 1

It’s time to move your clocks’ hands again, as daylight saving time will end at 2 AM on Nov. 1, 2009.

According to Wikipedia:

Daylight saving time (DST) or summer time (British English), also called daylight savings time, is the widespread practice of advancing official clock time so that afternoons have more daylight and mornings have less.  Typically clocks are adjusted forward one hour near the start of spring and are adjusted backward in autumn.  Modern DST was first proposed in 1895 by George Vernon Hudson, a New Zealand entomologist. Many countries have used it since then; details vary by location and change occasionally.

Daylight saving time will resume on March 14, 2010.
