He's decided to push back the date he will roll his clocks back 30 minutes. He doesn't see why he should subscribe to the US-dictated imperial practice of 1 hour divisions of time.
Other US imperialist ploys: the 24 hour day, the Gregorian calendar, adding the extra day in leap year to February...got any other imperialist ploys?

It's not like everyone HAS to follow it.
We just do it to conserve power, right? I don't mind getting that extra hour....but dammit I'm mad come spring!

He's not upset about Daylight savings. He's upset about the fact that the world is divided into hourly time-zones. (That's the British, BTW). He wants his country to be 30 minutes different.

My sister-in-law just became a US citizen and is from Venezuzla. She and her family would like for Chavez to move to Antarctica.

The man is obviously upset that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is getting so much press coverage rather than himself. He simply wants to be the center of attention. :p
