Then just keep Daylight Savings Time permanent. Forget about Standard Time.
That will keep more daylight at the end of the day, where we need it. Dark morning, we can deal with.

The gradual process of the lengthening of the days....works well as is.
Those who choose to “experience” more sunlight hours need only adjust their schedules...and not maintain that we should all adjust our lives for their benefit.
being in touch with the “natural” world in which we live has its upsides...
relating to an artificial time for dawn and dusk is certainly not one of them.
Operating on Standard time year round is going on the ballot here in CA

Probably should start some marches .... say like the “March Against DST”. Have children skip classes and march around the school for the “March Against DST”. Start fund raising and convert the hordes of global warming zealots to start organizing and propaganda campaigns. Yes America, rise up against the tyranny of time.

Put in a 5000K light in your bed lamp. Turn it on in the morning while you still feel sleepy!
The bright white light will bring you awake within a short while. Great for early morning fatigue.

Having taken many long east/west flights in my day and,as a result,having experienced serious jet lag in my day I can guarantee that a 1 hour clock change twice a year will,at worst,cause very minor difficulty for a day or two.

minor difficulty for a day or two for some...not so minor for many others.

no one forces me to fly to Australia and suffer the consequences.

Of course! More solar energy is available! /s;)
To: MeshugeMikey
There have been studies that have shown there are more workplace accidents, more driving accidents after the switch to Daylight Saving Time. Theres even studies that show there are more heart attacks right..." That's a no-brainer. Having to get up and go to work or about your business when it's pitch dark and you're still groggy will make accidents more likely.

“I hate it immensely”. As I, also, hate it immensely. Neighbors mow lawns 7:00 - 8:30 PM. Noise during our wind down relax hours is irritating. The peace of darkness after 9:00 PM.

They tried year-round daylight savings time back in 1974, at the height of the Arab oil embargo. The dark mornings proved problematic, particularly when a school bus ran over some kids at a bus stop, an accident blamed, at least in part, on the darkness.

I agree. Not only does it upset your equilibrium and give you jet lag for at least a week or three, but all that added daylight also causes cows to go dry and corn to burn in the field. AND it is a major contributor to global warming. Just too much daylight.
