CNN.com reports that a couple of congressmen are crafting legislation to extend day light savings time by two months - from March to November.

I am a big fan of daylight - especially when I get home from work - but does Congress really need to spend its time on this?

Does the issue satisfy marginal benefit = marginal cost?

The more daylight we have, the less electricity we use," said Markey, who cited Transportation Department estimates that showed the two-month extension would save the equivalent of 10,000 barrels of oil a day.

The country uses about 20 million barrels of oil a day.

Such Congressional action will save .05% of daily oil consumption? I doubt it.
