I know this was mentioned in the Corner already, but the news that the Chilean earthquake shortened the earth’s day has troubling significance. I think Miller, our official Daylight Savings Correspondent, needs to get to the bottom of all this. We’ve lost 1.26 microseconds out of every day. Over, say, 10,000 years multiplied across the entire global workforce, that adds up to a lot of lost productivity. Then there’s the issue of global warming. Less sunlight = less warmth. It could take decades for Miller to untangle all the issues. But one thing is clear: Congress must pass legislation mandating that the 1.26 microseconds be restored.
