You’re trying to start something, aren’t you.

(Nobody seriously thinks the so-called “daylight savings” is a good idea. Even Ben Franklin knew it was a joke}

I’m happy as many of my vehicles will then be on time.

Who has time to reset all of those clocks?

Standard time has a shorter period of operation than DST, so why bother?

Meh, for me forward or not forward makes little dif.
However, just pick one d*mned time standard and stick to it.

So by getting up earlier, and going to bed earlier, it seems like it’s staying light out longer?

DST is just putting “early to bed and early to rise” into law. Although I do like 9 pm sunsets in June and July.

If we increase the number of minutes in daylight hours, and take a corresponding number of minutes from the night time hours, we could have 22 hours of daylight each day!

Please no. It’s unhealthy since so many of us work based on a time. I would like to see Trump get behind a single year long time.

I wish they would institute year-round standard time. I hate having to get up in the morning and start my commute when it’s pitch dark.

The other half of my clocks will be right again!

I refer to the one in my kitchen as “stove top time” in the winter because I’ve been too lazy to bother changing it.

As one wag on reddit asked...

“Into what bank are they putting all this saved daylight?”

“Are Daylight Savings Bonds covered by the FDIC?” Is the interest free of Federal taxes?”

“How much of my portfolio should be invested in Daylight Savings?”

“What type of investment planners can help me plan for enough Daylight Savings for my sunset years?”

So we'll get 25 hours in a day instead of 24 then?

Back during the “energy crisis”, they switched to DST most of the year, and folks worried that kids weren’t safe going to skool in the dark.
