He gotya !
Thanks for the input. I enjoy these threads that go nowhere because the premise of DST is removed from those that sleep all day.
Some people just ain’t getting your sense of humor.
You were insulting Star Traveler at post 74 so you should head on over to DU now.
That's very much like your water heater joke last week, no?
Hoosiers fiddle with our clocks now, too. Well, I don't. My digital devices change themselves; my wristwatch, car clock, and alarm clock stay on Eastern Standard Time all year long.
Bump for later.
We used to have a cat who absolutely hated the autumn transition to winter (standard) time. Her stomach was on DST, and she did not want to wait an extra hour for dinner. Of course, she was delighted when we went from winter time to summer time.

Lol...in before obama releases a PSA taking credit for it.
No more fighting about DST. Afterall, it’s nothing to lose sleep over......oh, never mind!
I woke up and I see my iPad has the “right time” on it and my iPhone has the right time on it. I really don’t know what the big deal is, anyway! ... LOL ...
It’s amazing what people will take for granted. I like to encourage people pay attention to what they are reading.
I wish congress would focus on important things like; difference between Lunch, Dinner, and Supper! I eat lunch and dinner. My neighbors have dinner, then supper! What the heck???
I’m in QA, pointing out the world has done it wrong is my job, and I’m good at it. DST is stupid, period.
On an episode of their TV show, they got people to line up in droves to sign a petition banning the substance - which is essential for life on this planet.
It's meant to be in good humor to teach people not to be so gullible. But so many people got angry over that show that if you Google dihydrogen monoxide today, you can still see many who have not let it go.
No. You see I don’t care when you get to work or leave. And if everybody took responsibility for their own schedule then they could have the daylight interact with their work hours how ever they chose. DST is you making everybody else get up an hour earlier so you get to have that “extra” hour. Managing your own time is YOU getting up an hour earlier, and everybody else getting up when they want. I work my own schedule, I get up when I want, I go to work when I want, I get daylight where I want, and the only person effected by my scheduling decisions is my wife.
I am totally with you on this one Mom MD. I really like extra light in the evening. I want DLST to stay all year round.
