    Apparently this was a myth, but I’m against it, I voted in CA to pass a law where we don’t have to do it and yet we still do. No one wants day light savings time

        Studies have shown more health benefits for more people sticking to Standard time, despite widespread resistance. Personally, I’m all for permanent Standard time, but I’ll take DST if it is the only way to kill the switch.

          I think we should have four clock switches per year.

          In northern Europe an hour isn’t enough to make a difference regarding daylight, the winter days get really short up here. Initially it’s okay but then as the winter drags on you start to find that it’s still dark in the mornings again so really we should have the clocks move forwards and back every three months.

          Obviously that would be kind of unnecessary in the US outside of the Alaska.

        But let’s have spring forward every year, let’s make it real confusing. In 6 years 9am will be in the middle of the afternoon.
