In the spring you lose an hour (spring forward).
In the fall you gain an hour (fall back).

If you go to sleep under Standard Time, and reset your clock when you do, you lose your first house of sleep. If you want to get the same hours of sleep, you will have to reset your clock during the evening, lose the hour then, and go to sleep under Daylight Savings Time.

What does daylight saving time save?
When you turn your clock forward an hour in Summer it's saving time because when it is 12 midnight, it is actually eleven, so it is SAVING TIME because you rise earlier and get to work earlier.
Daylight Saving time is to the advantage of employers who try to persuade their workers that a fresh hour devoted to their job in the morning, has the same value as weary hour expended wrung out like a dirty dish rag in the afternoon; ... it is to the advantage of nine-to-five workers in that they arrive home while there's still plenty of daylight time to be out of doors,... although, to be honest, some may prefer the extra hour in the morning for other pursuits. Especially those who start work at 6 or 7 am. Daylight saving is not geared towards office workers, it is slanted towards those who work out of doors and who can put the extra daylight towards achieving greater production such as during war-time.
Farmers don't need it because they have always been up at the crack of dawn.

The first day of fall occurs at the autumnal equinox: Monday, September 22, 2008, at 11:44:16 EDT (15:44:16 UCT).
This date is different from the season of fall, which is one of the major divisions of the year based on the change of weather. In temperate and polar regions generally four seasons are recognized while in tropical or subtropical regions seasons are defined by wet, dry, and sometimes cool. These meteorological seasons are reckoned by temperature, with summer being the hottest quarter of the year and winter the coldest quarter of the year. The equinoxes and solstices mark the start of spring/autumn and summer/winter. The divisions are based on the rotation of the earth with respect to the angle of the earth. As the earth goes around the sun, picture it looking down on its orbit from above. summer solstice is when the earth's north pole is pointed most directly towards the sun (longest day) - warming the northern hemisphere. Winter solstice is when the earth's south pole is most directly pointed toward the sun warming the southern hemisphere and leaving the north cold. (shortest day) The equinoxes are the midway points between the solstices with the sun halfway between its northmost and southmost points, so we have equal day and night.

When does daylaight saving time end 2009?

Daylight Saving Time is four weeks longer since 2007 due to the passage of the Energy Policy Act in 2005. The Act extended Daylight Saving Time by four weeks from the second Sunday of March to the first Sunday of November, with the hope that it would save 10,000 barrels of oil each day through reduced use of power by businesses during daylight hours. Unfortunately, it is exceedingly difficult to determine energy savings from Daylight Saving Time and based on a variety of factors, it is possible that little or no energy is saved by Daylight Saving Time.
