D aylight- saving time: dubious, collu sive concoc tion or gooble- snittle-pok? Daylight-sav ing time is one of the most con founding phe- ACOB HUVAL nomena of the modern world — behind only the sinking of the Ti tanic, the disappearance of Emilia Earhardt and the sales of John Tesh albums. Several theories concerning the origin of daylight-saving time have recently surfaced. Some be lieve it is a federal conspiracy, an elaborate tool of government op pression designed to create a na tion of mindless zombies. Others believe it is an annual experiment conducted by aliens from some far-away planet, test ing human weaknesses and de pendence on the concept of time. And some believe Pauley Shore is funny. All three theories are gross ly incorrect. Daylight-saving time was birthed during the mid-’40s, in the midst of World War II, after years of research and iab tests performed by the celebrated Austrian sci entist and theoretician Neil “Big Tex” Einstein, Albert’s younger brother. Neil stumbled across his now famous and nationally observed theory of time change and global ramifica tions while conducting ex periments for his previous scientific study, published as “Pantsing and the Hu man Response.” Neil’s findings went un recognized in the scientific community for another decade, partly because of the diversion of national at tention to the war effort and the birth of the nuclear age — and partly because Neil wrote his completed theory on a cocktail napkin, which he later used after eating a jelly sandwich. In a way, Neil “Big Tex" Ein stein’s work suffered because of daylight-saving time. And, in a way, modern Americans’ work suffers for the same reason. A recent Gallup poll revealed that 65 percent of Americans for get about daylight-saving time and therefore neglect to properly adjust their schedules. Of those 65 percent of Americans who for get about the time change, 14 per cent care. And of that 14 percent, only .001 percent “know when to hold ’em, know when to fold ’em, know when to walk away and know when to run.” There are scores of ways for one to remember daylight-saving time. The first was offered by "Big Tex” himself, who, moments after his discovery, tied a piece of string around his neck. This practice, no doubt, pro vides an adequate reminder of the time change, but has been criti cized for causing a lack of oxygen to the brain and promoting color change in the face.
