Basically the proposal is to expand DST by two months by starting in March and ending in November.

Under the proposal, Daylight Savings Time would be in effect for more than half the year, and would become the new "normal". Maybe we can call Wintertime "Daylight Wastings Time" or something...

Maybe someday they'll just have it [DST] year round.

Indiana was actually the forunner in this area but we just recently took a step backwards.

We used to be on Central DST YEAR ROUND and it was great, but now because there are some people that are too damn stupid to figure out what time it is; we have to mess with clocks twice a year.

I alone have at least 12 different clocks I'll have to reset, and that doesn't include the one clock that's more finicky about it; the body clock.

I lived in FLA and played the DST game and it SUCKED!

Hey Mitch, you lost my vote man. There was a hell of a lot more important issues on your plate than messing with clocks!
