if you get excised over DST, you have far too much free time on your hands. I appreciate the extra hour of daylight after I get off work and have no problems what so ever with congress mandating a twice yearly time change.

This is hardly an intrusive threat to our rights

Its the same daylight, just changing the clock does nothing.

There was a guy on Hugh Hewitt's show who wrote a book about this, it was started so that Wall Street traders had more standardization, the most recent bill is bankrolled by candy makers, why? They want more people out on Halloween so they can sell more.

Its freaking stupid, if you want to maximize your time, move to the equator.

Okay, let's agree on this.

We'll set the clocks back for once and for all.

You will have your extra hour of light after work forever -- and the rest of us will be relieved of the burden of readjusting our bodies twice a year.
