Maybe if the global citizenry would lunge forward together a few steps at an assigned hour, the earth would pick up a little rotational speed, thus triggering a steady, cooling breeze dropping the general temperature a bit.

Folks,

It seems Ms. Meskimen is an attorney in Little Rock, Arkansas! 

A google search will give you her contact information.

I cannot believe she was serious.  Seems to me a little leg was being pulled....but....

Yeah, the evidence is in confirming satire.  Either I missed this on my initial visit to snopes or it was added later:

Evidently Mr. Mesimen has been receiving a number of direct inquiries about his satire, as the voicemail at his office phone presents callers with the following message:
“If you are calling about the Daylight Savings Time letter and wish to explain global warming or daylight savings time to me, I would urge you to get a sense of humor and/or a life, in that order.  Unless, of course, you want to pay me for an interview;  if so, please leave your telephone number and I will expediently return your call.”

A similar letter was found a month earlier in the Aspen Times.


Note:  I guess Connie is a guy.
