Daylight Savings Time
What do you think? I like it getting dark early part of the year. You can enjoy the nighttime before bedtime (8:30PM). I like the sunset still visible at 10:00PM sometimes too. Having said that, I think daylight savings time sucks. It just ain't natural!

Re: Daylight Savings Time
I'd make it daylight savings time year round!

'I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs.' Thomas Jefferson

Re: Daylight Savings Time
Here in Arizona we realize you can't fool mother nature - same amount of daylight no matter what, so we decline to participate!
In the summer, we want that friggin sun to go down as early as possible...it's a dry heat, but so's my oven!

Re: Daylight Savings Time
I hear ya loud and clear! My family and i lived out there (Chandler) from 03-07 and realized real quick why you guys don't participate. Kinda wish we would all just get rid of daylight savings all together. Originally Posted by VTB_Gunner

Re: Daylight Savings Time
It's nice in the summer to get off work and still have some daylight , in the winter it's dark when I get up and dark when I get home ...... gets a little depressing after a while besides the snow and cold.

Perhaps one day, we'll do it the way Arizona does. Who knows?
