I can't imaging anyone's mental state arriving at a level of "hate" for something this trivial. Actually I can't think of anything I "hate", that being an extreme emotion defiant of logic. Having served military duty on a submarine where extended submerged patrols operate on a 18 hour day (12 hrs off, 6 hours on) without reference sunlight for multiple months, and working the last 22 years on a rotating shift that rotates weekly I'm pretty familiar with the issues of circadian rhythm, some of which are very unpleasant. However I think a full year of "hate" is far more detrimental to health than a 1 hour shift twice a year. And who doesn't benefit from the extra hour of sleep in the fall? Oh, sometimes I don't if I'm working!
By my calculations, admittedly rough, the sunrise crosses RI in under 2 minutes. In Montana it takes nearly 45 minutes. How would life be better if everyone just used sunrise as a basis for life? It worked for several thousand years without anyone actually knowing that it did and nobody had to even think about time zones much less DST. How'd you like to get a message like: "I'll meet you at 20 minutes after sunrise?" No problem in RI but what about from within Montana? Or should we abandon hours & minutes completely and just go by the calendar? Every Olympic athlete would tie for gold & everyone wins- no losers! No more winner by .003 seconds.
In the world of today documented/measured time is relative to communications. DST doesn't support that very much, even in states that don't follow DST when communicating with states that do. My daughter previously worked for a company that has suppliers in Spain & Taiwan among others. She'd get up at AM to talk to the Spaniards when they got to work & in our evening she'd be talking to Taiwan. Neither company cared what time it was here.
DST is just a bump in the road. Any road with just 2 bumps ain't that bad. I admit that whatever logic was originally behind DST may be no longer valid but neither is the validity of hourly time zones that don't strictly follow lines of longitude. Nor are time zone lines that run down the middle of your street. Takes a whole hour to cross the street?

I actually benefit from the DST time change. If I'm scheduled for 8 hour on the night shift in the spring I get paid for the hour even though I didn't work it & if I work the extra hour in the fall I get an hour of OT.
I'm in southern NH. About 4 years ago our parent company, in Florida, wanted to go to a 8-9's & an 8 hour over 2 weeks work period with every other Friday off. Some wanted it, some didn't. Florida was pushing it because it works good for them. From the Naval Observatory website I pointed out to our union E board ( I was secretary at the time) that the difference in daylight period between NH longest/shortest day VS Florida's longest/shortest was 3 hours. Our longest day is 1 1/2 hours longer & our shortest day is 1 1/2 hours shorter than theirs. The union allowed the schedule on a work group by work group basis, all that tried it came back to the old schedule. Management still uses that schedule because everyone works 10-12 hour days anyway. Point being, no schedule is good for everybody & everyone's biological clock is different. MikeD74T
