1. What a waste.
I would like to know how many man-hours are wasted changing the clocks back and fourth.

I would also like to know how much computer time and software maintenance is needed to pull off a clock change. The I.T. managers on big networks are probably racking up some major overtime syncing up all the computers on the network.
