The Media is Looking for the Lost Hour

Apparently the media shares our concern about the hour lost when we “spring forward” to Daylight Saving Time.  After we released our data on the cost of the Lost Hour, called the Lost-Hour Economic Index, hundreds of stories were published in print, broadcast and online that mentioned our findings.  Here’s just a sample of some of that coverage:

• Huffington Post: Daylight Saving Time May Cost America $434 Million From Lost Sleep, Index Shows
