Ok, try this one for size :-)We are told that this country needs more scientists. A substantial number of people are introduced to science via amateur astronomy while they were at school. By going onto DST this will reduce the amount of time during the year for youngsters to visit observatories. This in turn will reduce the numbers exposed to astronomy, therefore reducing the numbers going into science. 🙂
