13. "You'll lose an extra hour of light"

WTF is wrong with these people?

For people in the northern hemisphere, the number of hours of light WILL BE less and less until (at least here in Philly) there are only about 9 hours of daylight and 15 hours of darkness in winter.

As it is, the "extra hour of light" so-called "lost" in the afternoon has meant an "extra hour of light" GAINED (at least briefly) in the morning, so I'm not going out to work in the pitch dark like I was the past month or so. But I know that by December/January, I will be leaving in the dark and getting home at dusk.
