That extra hour of sunlight is what causes global warming.
Roger that.
Spring forward
Fall back
I know it’s corny
The days naturally get longer all by themselves, without our any of our 'help'. Just leave it alone!
My mother was from Arizona where they don't have DST. I guess I got my ho-hum attitude from her.
I wonder why they don’t just do 15 minutes four days in a row. Monday after setting the clocks forward is absolutely awful. By the end of the work day, it is terrible.
I absolutely hate daylight savings time. Right now, I’m getting up with the sun, but when daylight savings time kicks in, it will be like getting up in the middle of the night.
Somehow I like this phrase.
Idaho house bill 559, to be precise. This state is screwed up enough time-zone-wise already without DST. The north part of the state is on Pacific time and the south, Mountain. Try explaining that to someone trying to get in touch with you, especially if you happen to travel between zones.
Split the difference and leave it there year round.
It’s nor step back, it’s FALL BACK!!
Can’t wait for Sunday and daylight saving time to return!!!
Im thinking of working to pit a End Daylight Savings TIme proposition on the California Ballot.
It would simply say. “California shall at all times observe Pacific Standard Time”
Ive gotten a tremendously lopsided support from 90 percent of the people Ive broached this topic with thus far.
the three plus weeks of body clock adjustment just isnt worth it,
And the sun will rise and set according to it’s own rules without regard to the silly little games we play.
During the summer, it's nice to come home from work and have a couple hours of daylight to sit on my deck or in my yard with a cold beer, usually with something cooking on the grill.
I usually don't get home until around 6:30pm so without DST, I would only have about a six-week window of coming home to broad daylight. With DST, it's more like four months.
Damage to sleep patterns and other routines is bad for productivity. And summer? LOL! Summer booms are history.
At winter’s end, I’m ready for longer days with more sun. However, by the end of the summer, I can’t wait for darkness to come sooner...it’s very cozy when it’s cold.
But this weekend seems to early to begin DST. There’s still snow on the ground here.
I loathe time zones all together. Local time was good enough for the Founding Fathers and it's good enough for me. There's no reason why I should be forced on the same time as someone a few miles east or west of me. < /sarc>
Seriously, I love DST. Living 9° west of the center of the time zone (I should be in Central time rather than Eastern) means sunset is after 9pm in June. I love it. Yeah, sure I could get up and go into work an hour earlier. I won't be going home any earlier so that wouldn't help.
Leave it to the damn govt to tell us when to get up and when to go to bed!!!!
EFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think the “rationale” for DST is absolute bunk. It’s been shown that DST adjustment causes more heart attacks than normal.
In my little ol’ humble opinion...it’s population control.
It is a stupid idea. A few years ago Congree moved the date to even earlier......telling us they were “ giving us more sun.” Right. Enough, just leave nature alone.
