Hell no. If anything I think we should stick with it year round. I hate getting home from work and it being dark out.

I think it was proven that the extra money spent on heating and cooling is actually more than the savings on lighting.

Don’t care. Extra hour of useful daylight \> a few bucks a month to keep the heat/ac on longer.

I thought I read somewhere that the reason they don’t is you’d have kids standing around waiting for the bus in the dark in the winter. Don’t know if that’s true or not.

I think thats the new reasoning for it. The only one I thought had something to do with old day workers who did stuff outside and lost hours when it was dark most of the year and could tend their farms and such.

Meh I guess I’ll get up at like 11am instead of 10am sunday. I used to love it when we turned the clocks back and I worked on weekends. Now I live in a town that doesn’t close and don’t work weekends so it doesn’t really matter anymore.
