[Terranautical]

The idea of having the clock not match the earth's rotation is abhorrent.

though i hate daylight savings time with a passion, i also hate all the commuters that get on the freeway only after the sun comes up. 6:30 with the sun up has way more cars on the road than 6:30 with sunrise 30 minutes away. for the life of me i can't figure out why that is.

Wouldn't that mean you LIKE daylight savings time? There will be fewer cars on the road at 6:30.

Enh, I'm looking forward to the extra hour of daylight in the evening. Though I totally forgot about it until I got an e-mail from work reminding us.

Homer: 8:58, first time I've ever been early for work. Except for all those daylight savings days. Lousy farmers.

that's the only thing i like about it, and that isn't necessarily dst's fault.

The President, or federal government for that matter, has no say in daylight saving time. It's a state issue.

And from what I recall, this whole DST was started by farmers who needed the extra light for their crops. Now that we have better crop technology, is DST even needed any longer?

[Fausto]

WTF are you people bitching about? Seriously? DST gives us extra daylight during non-work hours (for most); what exactly is bad about that?
