::Well, you're almost right. Apart from apparently not reading the references we provided, nor taking on board any of the stated reasons for your possible confusion. And that {{w|Daylight saving time|it's not (and has never been) about saving candles in ''winter''}}. But otherwise I won't bother to argue.

:::Not "almost", fully. I haven't said ONE thing that was incorrect. ''I'M'' the one trying to clear up confusion. Things I've stated, which nobody has disproven, 1) Eastern is GMT -5, 2) UTC is +4 from the Eastern time zone 3) If GMT was the same as UTC, there would be no reason to have the term 4) The only ACTUAL function of Daylight Savings has ever been to save candles and 5) Nobody besides me is checking anything said here (how hard is it to go to your time zone setting and LOOK at it? See which ones name New York, Miami, Toronto, Montreal? See how they're GMT -5?). You just confirmed #5 yourself. And funny, you provide a link to call me wrong without reading it and seeing it confirms what I said: "The idea of aligning waking hours to daylight hours to conserve candles was first proposed in 1784 by U.S. polymath Benjamin Franklin.". Saving candles, as I said. And it's only in the winter that the sun tends to rise AFTER the average person, the only time people might need more light by which to get ready and started in the morning. (FYI, before I created an account, I used to manually put a nickname, so people would know what comments go together. I wish the people I'm trying to help here would do so, because I can't be sure how many people I'm talking to, how many people are being too stubborn to check anything) [[User:NiceGuy1|NiceGuy1]] ([[User talk:NiceGuy1|talk]]) 05:11, 15 July 2023 (UTC) | :::Not "almost", fully.
