Poștașul George, omul pasionat de gâze de la care a venit prima dată ideea cu ora de iarnă și ora de vară
The transition to winter time occurred last night, making October 25 the longest day of the year. There is ongoing global debate about abolishing the time change, with health professionals arguing it disrupts circadian rhythms. Studies link the spring shift to increased heart attacks and accidents due to sleep deprivation.
