Daylight saving

Today we fall back an hour. It is such a strange phenomenon, that of DST. We simultaneously change our clocks twice a year with the worry being that someone forgot to change theirs. I find it amazing that the world continues mostly unaffected by this change. Since it was originally done for farmers, in a society were less a percentage of people are farmers, why is it done anymore?
