Here's my take on it. I hate that it gets dark by 4:00 - 4:30 PM in the winter while on standard time. If we were permanently on daylight savings time, then it would be getting dark by 5:00 - 5:30 PM in the winter which for whatever reason, feels more natural to me.

Just a question I read in the internet;
If a baby is born at 1:59 A.M. and its twin is born 2 minutes later, but the clock is set back to 1:01 A.M. because of daylight savings, which sibling is older on paper? |

I think its time has passed. Most farming is commercially owned. I also work w/ folks in AZ and I always get tripped up twice a year for at least a few weeks each time.

Now I am confused....where are you in Canada that there is not the DST time change?? I thought there was no part of Canada that did not follow the Spring/Fall DST switch. "Enlighten" me.

I'm all for going to permanent DST. But I understand how folks living on the extreme western edge of time zones would find it a bit disturbing. More light in the evenings is fine with me and I'm ok with 10PM sunsets at the extreme (more time for riding after work). But I understand why the morning crowd (farmers, etc) would object.

I hate the clock change. I'd be lying if I said I didn't get a slight bit of enjoyment watching those who forgot to set their clocks come in late/early though.

DST may have been a good idea at it's inception, but then came indoor plumbing......

The real question isn't who hates DST; there's been near-universal agreement about it for as long as I can remember. Every year at this time, the topic gets discussed among friends and n the media. But...
... with all the strong dislike – and armed with stacks of evidence disproving its original premise – what would it actually take to bury DST once and for all? It's kind of a phenomenon that such a strongly-desired abolishment gets virtually no real-world traction. Heavy buy-in to the idea of reversing DST hasn't made any broad-scaled difference whatsoever (excepting AZ, et al.) We (citizens) seem powerless to influence such a seemingly easy change. Are there any salient ideas for eradicating this detestable time change ritual, in the stagnant waters of do-nothingness? Or, will we just complain once again, in vain, at this same time next year? Ho-hum. In the words of the great Mr. Spock, "Fascinating."

This is literally the only thing that I've ever messaged Donald Trump to repeal. I'm fine with all the other shit he wants to do, as long as he gets rid of this scourge on humanity

I dislike it too. And I have no idea why they moved it up a week in the spring and back a week in the fall, starting in 2007.
The whole thing is stupid. But we love stupid. |
