vote now - daylight savings time

The life of me I can not understand why someone would prefer to have it dark at 430pm. Make DSL the standard and be done with it. No moving of clocks any more.

This doesnt save power, it doesn't help school kids (remember EVERYTHING is about the ccchhhhiiiilllldddreeennnnn)it doesn't help farmers, it's just a silly game we all go along with for no reason other than "that's what we've always done."

actually we've been observing it in all its idiocy for decades now. three years ago we decided to participate.

"Observe" is the correct verb in this case (to obey, comply with, or conform to: to observe laws).

I have an automatic sprinkler system that does NOT adjust automatically with the time change. Of course I forget to reset it manually, and got a $45 citation for violating the stupid water usage laws because the system went off an hour "later." Dumb.

In the very post you replied to, I told you exactly why I prefer it. Reading comprehension isn't your strong suit, is it?

How about no time change.

We all go in an hour late during the winter but leave at the normal time.

If the days are darker we just need to sleep more.

Brilliant!

Well, getting letsrunners to select simply a b or c is like herding cats, but as best as I can tell, here's the results:

13 or 76% would not change the clocks

4 or 24% would keep changing the clocks

And also, I'm very much in favor of having students go to school later, such as 9:00 AM.
