not in Queensland they do not have it.
The thought cutting two inches from a blanket and sewing it on the other end makes it longer concerns me.
However my new, [five years ago] curtains are looking a bit faded

Which end do you cut? If you take the faded end where does that get you?

I think day light savings cause the curtains to fade less- but I think it's caused when I open the curtains in the "morning". Also the dark side of the moon isn't always dark.

Certainly daylight saving is a cause of gw. Just ask the IPCC.

Who cares about curtains, it's your ticker you should be worried about.

Most of it (82%) is, the moon is tidally locked.
