I don’t mind the extra riding time in the evening.

 

[Bozz10mm]

Yes, pick one and stick with it.

 

[BillFairbanks]

Please get rid of it.

It doesn’t save anything. It just tricks everyone into waking up an hour earlier.

In the Summer, when it’s 100 plus, I
never wish for the Sun to stay up another hour at 8 PM

I liked it better the ONE year that we got on DST & STAYED all year.

yours, satx

DST laughs in the face of my circadian rhythm.

Back to coming inside and cleaning up at 9pm

But... evening backyard BBQs???

 

[DoubleDuty]

I always hate giving back that hour.

Lol, I have a light. Plus my backyard is more comfortable after the Sun goes down in the Summer.

Know it drove my old Grandad crazy back in the 50s. If you happen to ask him what time is it? He would check his watch and say “Well they claim it’s 2 o clock but it’s really 3 o clock.” He’s the same guy who along with the old man next door..refused to look up when old Sputnick sizzled over our heads in 59. They both thought it was a Rooski trick of some type.

Let's just set the clock back an hour this Saturday.

I have a common sense solution. Just adjust the clock 30 minutes leave it there and make the rest of the world adjust to us.

Okay, it doesn’t make the day longer and we still have the same number of hours of sunshine. However, I get an extra hour of sunshine after I get off work. I wake up early, but getting my wife up to go riding on the weekends never works out early. Maybe we should just stick with DST.

When I used to walk a beat from 7 PM to 3 AM, this was my favorite Saturday night to work. The fall sucked because the 8 hour shift on your feet became a 9 hour shift.

St. John’s Canada is that way. I suppose it is actually Newfoundland, Canada that is that way.

Exactly. Spring ahead and leave it that way. I want more daylight at the end of the day.

don't care what the clock says.

I still go to work when told go home when told.

After a week no one is effected by it.

I don’t think so.

In the Summer I find it hard to get enough sleep because of how late the Sunset is.

Also, during school, it’s dark when the kids are waiting for the bus in the mornings.

Plus, evening baseball and football games are hotter.

Why not just leave it at the natural time? If someone wants to wake up an hour earlier and leave work an hour earlier, let them make those arrangements with their employers.

Maybe you should just move to the east coast.
