Re: Daylight Savings time doesn't work

I could've told you that. To me all it does is mess my sleeping schedule up.

Re: Daylight Savings time doesn't work

It should be abolished, it should have been abolished a long time ago.

Re: Daylight Savings time doesn't work

Does it give you more daylight after the end of the work day? If so, then it works for me.

As for the rest, ban air conditioners.

Bugger the energy debate - at least some of us get to see the sun more often when we go home.

Agree on the first part.

Ban AC? I'll give up mine right after you give up your heating system.

My thoughts exactly. Never understood the dislike for having another hour of daylight.

Re: Daylight Savings time doesn't work

I love daylight savings time.

As for AC, I don't have it.

I can get 18 holes in after work in June. That's gotta be worth something, right there.

Re: Daylight Savings time doesn't work

If they're going to abolish either time setup, then abolish standard time. I could care less if it's light out at 6:30 in the morning, but I damn well want it to be light out at 8:30 to 9 at night.

That's it. I've always loved the daylight after work but I don't like my clock being jerked around.
