That's because we're constantly getting closer to the sun and entering a new solar cycle. Global warming is a myth and scare tactic.

maybe you're right. yeah and we had a time change in MARCH. usually it's april. how do u know we're heading towards the sun? < i havent heard about that yet. do enlighten me

It's gravity man. The Sun is constantly growing and/or pulling us closer. It's what keeps us spinning around along with our moon. Now if we were to stop cycling around the sun, we'd be sucked in a lot faster.

A new calculation predicts that Earth will be swallowed up by the sun in 7.6 billion years, capping off a longstanding debate over whether the sun's gravitational pull will have weakened enough for Earth to escape final destruction or not.

Other theorists have predicted that our planet will fry as the sun expands in its old age. But the time estimates have varied by a couple billion years.

"Although people have looked at these problems before, we would claim this is the best attempt that's been made to date, and probably the most reliable," said astronomer Robert Smith, emeritus reader at the U.K.'s University of Sussex, who made the new calculations with astronomer Klaus-Peter Schroeder of the University of Guanajuato in Mexico. "What we've done is to refine existing models and to put the best calculations we can at each point in the model."

lol that was simple. =D

No worries. Johnny was right too. I forgot that the sun was expanding. Still, with a few billion years until D-Day, I think we got time to figure things out.

Never mind Ran has it covered.

I thought this was common knowledge by now?

Im sure it is, however the way I read his post he was equating the movement of DST with nature, instead of the govt moving it to conserve energy.
