51: America Can’t Figure Out Daylight Saving Time (Part 2)
In his final episode on Daylight Saving Time, Norm tells us that America has flip flopped on Daylight Saving Time for decades. We love it! We hate it! We implement it; we rescind it. Will the battle ever end? Probably not! Will Norm survive the disease known as the flu? We sure hope so!
Remember, kids, history hoes always cite their sources! For this episode, Norm pulled from:
