The DST thing was, and is, stupid. 8-year-old kids at the bus stops 2 hours before sunrise.

Actually it's the other way around. The sunrise here at this time of year is around 5:00am. It's still light out at 10:00pm.

Sure, this time of year. However, moving the date up one month in the spring, near the equinox, makes for a very large difference in sunrise time. IIRC (I was a pup), Nixon did it really early in the year, and it was miserable in the Northern States.
