No, you miss the point. The name implies saving daylight, not time. Show me anyone who can do that. (And I won't ask why Saving has to be plural.) More examples: what is the one thing that shock-absorbers don't do? What does a condenser (on a carburettor) condense? What heat-transfer mechanism does a car radiator use? (Hint: if it uses radiation, why does it need a fan?) This is now way off-topic. It is fun though. -- Rgds Peter.
