That's almost as good as the letter to the editor last spring. Our state only just adopted Daylight Savings Time and the writer denounced it as a plot to mess with the climate by lengthening the day, thereby lending credence to the false threat of global warming and bolstering the hand of those who would subjugate us by making us drive hybrid cars.
(Not the exact text, of course; but the writer did sincerely believe that somehow resetting clocks affected the amount of sunlight.)
