I actually like it the way we do it. DST is good in summer; not so much in winter.

Yeah, I think this is the last time we are falling back. Isn't that correct? Next year at this time we will be leaving it be. I always thought I would want it that way but the more I think about it the darkness in the morning is a bit much. By the 21st of December it will still be dark out at 8:30 in the morning. It will make going hunting in the morning a bit easier though, so maybe it is for the best.

I agree.

I'm surprised. I haven't found anyone around here that doesn't want DST. I guess it depends on the region?
Warmer evening temps with sunlight is more favorable to most I assume for chores after work. I am that way anyway.

 

[Doofy]

Doesn't matter to me either way. I just wish they'd set it and forget it.

Permanent DST was tried in the 70s and it only took one winter for the people not to like it.

Too bad they couldn't make it noon when the sun was at the highest spot. Right now it's noon but the sun makes it look like 10:00 What happened to high noon. I guess that makes too much sense.

The Sunshine Protection Act passed unanimously in the Senate, but the House wouldn't even take up the matter. Politics at its finest. Until the House passes it and sends it along to Uncle Joe for signature we will have to keep changing clocks twice a year, despite all the associated health effects and annoyance.

Yeah, leave it as it is. I hate getting up early and working in the dark. By late afternoon, I'm ready for a nap anyway.
