Extra Credit Discussion #2 -- Who has your favorite teacher been and why? (Cannot choose me =)

Okay, I'm trying to get some data on who your favorite teachers have been in the past and why?  Before weighing in/commenting, click on the link below and take a look at the infographic if you're not sure.  After you write a comment, you may want to send a note to that teacher to thank them.  They may not even know you have been influenced by them.  Look forward to reading your comments.  Make sure you leave at least one good comment on another student's post.

Extra Credit Discussion Area #1 Daylight's Saving? Is it good? Bad? Does it matter?

Hello to those of you seeking extra credit or just seeking to speak your opinion about something.   In order to get extra credit, I'd like for you to post an original post with your original thoughts and opinions on the topic and respond to another person's post.  You can respectfully disagree, agree, give some kudos, expand on another's ideas, or just lurk and read everyone's posts.  The extra credit will be open from Friday to Friday.

This first week we have sprung forward and the mornings are a bit darker, depending on when you wake up, but we have more daylight at the end of the day.

Respond to the topic below:
YOU MUST READ THE WIKIPEDIA ARTICLE BELOW AND MENTION A FACT FROM THE ARTICLE IN YOUR POST.  WHEN YOU AGREE OR DISAGREE WITH SOMEONE'S COMMENT, INCLUDE THE PERSON's NAME IN THE COMMENT SO WE KNOW WHO YOU AGREE OR DISAGREE WITH.

Is daylight's saving, good, bad, doesn't make a difference?  Weigh-in with your opinions.
If you need some food for thought, here is a link to the wikipedia article about daylight's saving time.
