Dark during rush hour in the morning or dark during rush hour at night. What's the difference?

I'm pro-DST because I have a long commute. It gives me more time in the summer to play with my children outside (or do yardwork)after I get home. (If I could make my own work schedule, it wouldn't matter to me a bit.)

I imagine that damn internal combustion engine was a solution to a non problem for your horse and buggy, along with the government funded interstates you get every good you possess from. .... dealing logically with a liberatarian is sometime like trying to nail jello to a wall.....

Fine no use of our tax dollars are justified outside the LIberatarian mantra... sleep well. ( on that government inspected mattress)

Agreed.

Are you one of the numerous rabidly anti libertarian crowd here?

I think comparing DST with the internal combustion engine is a bit of a stretch. I think it compares better with the spork : an annoying solution to a nonproblem.

Huh?

[Walkingfeather]

yeah Huh!
