The good thing is that we human beings are not greatly influenced by circadian rhythms, despite what you read in pop-media-junk-science articles.

enabled them to observe how Americans split their time between their three most time-consuming activities: work, sleep, and television watching.

Well. There we have it. Reminds me PJ O'Rourke's statementsthat the real three branches of government are money, television and bullsh*t.

Yeah, let’s adopt a lifestyle in which our circadian rhythms are unaffected by electricity (because the advent of electricity—and even candles—has a much greater effect on supposed circadian rhythms than TV) and live like rural Africans out in the bush. We’ll all be so much better off then.

It’s a free country.

People who don’t like daylight savings time should set their clocks to whatever time they wish.

Hey! Hey! Ho! Ho!
Alarm clocks got to go!

Two, four, six, eight!
Sunsets at noon and it’s great

Wow, this article seems to be implying that people still watch television. I hadn’t realized that.

TV is so over; only Freeping has any reality.

I’m glad I read this. I’d have been late for church tomorrow!

BeAllYouCanBe solution; set the clocks 1/2 hour ahead and leave them there! End of any problem. I have lived most of my life in Indiana and I loved never switching time. I will die and still never understand any advantage to “day light savings” — I mean were are we putting all of this saved time?

Daylight Saving Time is a Communist plot to sap our Precious Bodily Fluids.
