This is something we've known for years. Now change it! Keep either standard time or savings time, one of the other.
I saw how it affected school children, especially the spring transmutation.
I vote to keep Standard time year round or moving the clock one half hour ahead permanently.
I prefer standard time. I don’t need it to be daylight at night time and I don’t like driving to work in utter darkness. But most of all, I don’t like the changing back and forth. It takes too long for my circadian rhythm to adjust to the changes.
I think we should all adopt the Arizona model and not have DST at all. The same people who are complaining that it gets dark too early in the winter will be complaining about getting up and driving to work an hour before dawn.
From my observation point, the human brain has already eroded way past the point of no return. Western civilization is committing suicide.
How did we ever survive before they started changing the clocks
It was a stupid idea propagated by people wit too much time on their hands.
For some reason it especially annoyed me to change the clocks again Sunday. I wondered if this would ever stop. Why does it take so many years to change nonsense?
And then I read yesterday that stopping this ridiculous time change was being voted on...and passed the Senate.
YAY! They did something constructive.
and the dumbest saying ever.
“We’ll get an extra hour of daylight starting tomorrow.”
With all the problems our country and the world is facing, why worry about what the h*ll time it is???
A) Since wide spread adaption of DST in the 70's people are living longer than ever
B) people who travel on jets aren't dropping dead on a regular basis
I will take me kids to the playground tonight after work thanks to this wonderful Constitutional gift of DST and let you and others....
Yeah, it’s like all the millions falling over dead when they drive/fly to a different time zone. Millions, I tell you. Every day.
It is the twice a year change that is detrimental to us. Let’s stop changing the clocks!
Gee whiz... I wonder then how come we don’t see a difference in animals or humans where they get 24 hours a day of sunlight(seasonal) and where the northern lights are frequent... Light polution neear major cities etc...
As I stated on another thread peddling this crap. I’d bet all I own that the time it took to read this thread took more time off my life span than sleeping with a light on
My dad always told customers he worked “Dark-Thirty to Dark-Thirty.” The clock had no stay in that deal.
Mandating a shift of the hour hand of everybody’s clock is unnatural. I’m glad this twice-a-year exercise in delusion will end.
Time is a lie, lunchtime doubly so…
Permanent Standard Time; if only this
might possibly bring back the Drive In
Theaters of days gone by.
One causality of DST.
Dumb ideas from ignorant nincompoops.
.
I, for one, will miss the change. It’s the only way I’ll ever get to time travel.
.... scientists are now saying it could have negative long-term consequences on the human brain.
BS, anyone affected by an hours time change twice a year is already impaired because everything affects them.
How the hell could they ever fly or drive through a different time zone? Suicides would be happening in cars and on flights daily.
DST is stupid to begin with, no doubt about that but it’s not a hazard except to the weak that is afraid of everything.
