Good job this year to all the May Tiger Basketball players and coaches. Daylight savings time in the United States starts this year on March 10. Why do we have daylight savings time? Congress ordered the transportation agency to "foster and promote widespread and uniform adoption and observance of the same standard of time within and throughout each such standard time zone." So why is a transportation authority in charge of time laws? It all dates back to the heyday of railroads. "In the early 19th century … localities set their own time," said Bill Mosley, a public affairs officer at the U.S. Department of Transportation. "It was kind of a crazy quilt of time, time zones, and time usage. When the railroads came in, that necessitated more standardization of time so that railroad schedules could be published."
