I hate daylight savings, and changing the clock.

Spring forward, fall back? Who cares? It's linked to car accidents and everything.

So, this is my "I HATE CHANGING MY CLOCK" post of the half-year. No real content, just that.

Do you know that it's supposed to be daylight saving time, without the "s"? It's harder to say but here's the explanation for it, from Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daylight_saving_time):

The expression daylight savings time (with the extra "s") is a common alternate form, but is considered incorrect English. While many people feel the word "savings" (with an "s") sounds better, saving is used here as a verbal adjective describing a single type of activity, so the form is singular.

Normally I wouldn't bother to point this out but I thought you would either be interested to know it or have a good reason why you didn't use it already. :)

Considered incorrect by whom? The speakers?
