I would prefer a compromise in which all clocks are set forward 1/2 hour next spring and then kept there permanently, by act of Congress, excluding states that want Daylight Saving Time or Standard Time instead. I love DST, but others love ST.

Well, besides, that extra hour of sunlight contributes to global warming..

My solution. During day, add 13 o’clock to afternoon. Adding one hour of daylight at nightfall. At 13:59, clock goes to 1:00 pm. Then, at 10:59 pm, clock goes to 1:00 o’clock am. Still 24 hour day. More daylight. I hate this darkness coming at 5 pm. Not enough daylight to milk cows, slop hogs, and gather eggs from the hen house.

We don’t need DST. Days get longer in the summer naturally.

My dog never appreciated Daylight Savings Time. Either the time change would mean that he would be sound asleep when mom got home and would have have to snap to attention to attempt to greet her properly (usually by decking her). Or, he would have to wait an extra hour until she FINALLY got around to showing up. In both cases, the mutt was damn pissed about the time change.

I’m with you on that.

Splitting the difference would be the perfect solution.

I like the long days and late evenings in the summer and don’t want the sun to set too early so would rather have it either split the difference, or worst case, set it to DST and leave it THERE instead of Standard time.

I hardly think it’s “oppressive”.

DST is a menace to health, bane of winter existance. It needs to stop already.

Constant back and forth? It happens twice a year. And you know it’s happening....at least fifteen years in advance.

Who writes this tripe?

Already dead in AZ. Somehow we manage to survive without it - except in the extreme northeast corner of the state, where the Navajo still cling to their primitive ways.
