  1000 words comment on a paper published in the European Journal of Internal
Medicine by a panel of experts. My point is authors address the magnitude of
the change (one hour) but fail to consider in any way its seasonal features.
DST is not a random change of an hour but an specific change on specific dates
and in a specific direction ---spring forward, fall back---. DST is the way
many contemporary societies handles the seasonality. The way many contemporary
societies turn a nonseasonal clock (the mechanical clock) into a seasonal
clock.
