If you do that, wouldn't you have to move it half an hour 4 times a year instead of moving it one hour 2 times a year?

Just wait till the sun goes nova. Then you'll all wish it got dark at 5pm.

Or live in Vancouver where you won't see the sun for 4 months.

Yep! This is the time change everyone complains about, but it's spring to fall that's actually Daylight Savings Time... if we elimated DST this time of year would be unaffected

I actually prefer the dark to wondering around with the glare of the sun in my eye every where i go. I also prefer the temperature outside right now to the heat of the summer.

Yeah, suicide attempts are a sort of hobby out here.

What's this "sun" you speak of?

I'd rather it be dark in the evening. At least when I go to work I get to see some sunlight before I get there. It's getting too cold in the evenings anyway ... I don't really want to go outside and do a whole lot.

This is a tough time of the year to drive in the morning at rush hour. The blinding sun is right in your eyes driving east. I saw a woman nearly hit a pedestrian this morning.

I would actually prefer staying on this time year round. I kind of like the long nights of winter. And as for summer, I don't really need it to be light until 1030. It's helped to finish of the odd round of golf, but generally speaking, I find morning light to be much more useful that evening light.

I think you are talking about Expedia... go for a vacation when it snows and it's dark out.
