I agree just pick and stick with it.

Going back and forth twice a year is not good for one’s sanity or health.

How’d you like to be ME? I’m a watchmaker with upward of 50 watches that I have to set and the re-set twice a year. Worse, when I mail out a repaired watch to another time zone, I get a complaint because the customer’s watch isn’t on time when they get it.
When I know what time zone a watch is going to, I “TRY” to remember to set it thus, but when it is THAT day to move up or down an hour, still no good.
Each year, a few people mail their watch back with a letter of complaint. Either that or an upset e-mail.

We should have double time from June through August.

The time change gives me jet lag that takes me two weeks to recover from.

We should just pass a law to require that sunrise and sunset must be at 6am and 6pm every day, like countries along the equator.

Oh brother. Only those that can't walk and chew gum at the same time.

Old Indian saying:

“Only the government would think that you could cut a foot off the bottom of a blanket and sew it back on the top and think it would be longer”

Businesses and school districts are free to adjust their operating hours throughout the year as they see fit. No need to monkey with the standard.

My feelings exactly! Pick one, either one and then leave it alone!
