I like DST.I guess farmers don't but,given our breathtaking agricultural productivity,it can't be hurting them *too* badly.

yeah BFD right ???

the human/animal pattern is to awaken as the sun rises [more or less a pattern for most people and animals anyways] so UN-naturally shifting the time really throws things into confusion and upsets the balance that usually takes myself a while to readjust...

therefore the whole concept seems to be simply another dominant power move by our royalty to keep the slaves out of balance...

I always thought it was so the kids didn’t have to stand in the dark to catch the buss in the winter.

Really, one hour makes that much difference, even when you get an extra hour in the fall?

All the crap going on in the world and this clown is whining about DST. Shut up.

You’ll get it back in October, with nicer weather.

I'm glad the change was this weekend. With all the snow on the ground in the eastern half of the country, an extra hour of sunlight will be good to help melt it.

Yes, I know...

The government changed the time between sunrise and sunset ?

RE:”My cat is really gonna be miffed about this (me too). She gets in my face every morning about 4:00 AM wanting me to get up and give her some treats (she gets a few “Temptations” bites) She LOVES those things - I don’t know what’s in them, but she loves them. Like Kitty Crack..”

Does kitty know about the time change?

RE:”In the southwest, they don’t like DLST because it adds a extra hour of brutal heat during the workday”

If it was to save energy they would switch back to EST in the summer so it gets dark earlier

RE:”I didn’t change my clocks last year. I just kept my home set to “slow” time the year round. No problem. The phone and computers switched time, but I just ignored it. The reason it was no big deal is because when I was a kid we lived right on the time line and we chose to set our home for “slow” time.”

My watch is a pain in the neck to change the time too.

Actually I have a perpetual watch, so I never have to set it. It sets itself. Guess I’m lazy. LOL

Most of my business is in europe, so I work my own schedule and eat and sleep when I feel like it. With the exception of an occasional flight out of town, I don’t pay attention to time.
