But you don't *get* an "extra" hour of light..! The amount of daylight in
any given day is not determined by a clock..!

That "extra" hour you want in the evening is there, but it's in the
morning, while you're lying in bed. Get up earlier and go to bed earlier;
start school/work at 8 instead of 9 or whatever it is. Problem solved.

Think about it; what did people do before clocks were invented..? They got
up when the sun rose and went to bed when it set.
