Daylight Savings

[Baker12]

the only thing more predictable than daylight savings time is all the finger lickin that goes on here when a new food shack is about to open

What the hell is it about you and your obsession with everyone else's ( and only in your mind) obsession with food?

Why do you hate food? Do you have an eating disorder?

With the advent of widespread, affordable artificial lighting, the clock change no longer makes any sense.

Stay with standard time, about 2 months of sunrise before 0500.

Stay with daylight saving, about 2 months of sunrise after 0800.

This is what people don't realize when they suggest staying with either EST or DST.
Sunrise on June 21 would be 4:42 AM with EST.
Sunrise on December 21 would be 8:20 AM with DST.

Until they come up with an artificial sun that shines between 7am and 8pm year round, I'll stick with Daylight Savings Time.

So long as TPTB pick one and stay with it.

spring forward.....and leave it. When winter comes, it gets dark earlier all by itself; requiring no input from us.

you are spot on

U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) introduced legislation, the Sunshine Protection Act, that would make Daylight Saving Time (DST) permanent across the country. He also introduced the Sunshine State Act, which would give Florida approval to establish permanent DST within its boundaries. This is in response to the Florida legislature’s overwhelming vote in support of staying on DST. Many studies have shown that making DST permanent could benefit the economy and the country.

Well, I hope this passes so when November rolls around, we don't have to set our clocks back.
