WASHINGTON (AP) -- An agreement was reached Thursday to extend daylight-saving time in an effort to conserve energy, but not to the extent the House approved in April.

House and Senate negotiators on an energy bill agreed to begin daylight-saving time three weeks earlier, on the second Sunday in March, and extend it by one week to the first Sunday in November.

I got a kick out of Rep. Markey's statement:

"The beauty of daylight-saving time is that it just makes everyone feel sunnier"

We all know it's just so the kids can trick-or-treat in daylight hours.
